flavored Crisco
2 lbs. large sweet potatoes, sliced 1/8†thick
4 T. Butter Flavored Criscoâ„¢
Add little real butter
Seasonings
Heat Criscoâ„¢ in a large skillet.
When hot- add sliced sweet potatoes. Season with salt –pepper-garlic granular-onion powder- ñ little cayenne pepper all to UR taste (can sprinkle with little brown sugar if so desired.
Cover ñ lower heat.
After about 5 minutes- uncover ñ turn sweet potatoes with
a spatula.

Check frequently to make sure potatoes don’t burn.
Uncover - continue to cook for -few minutes- to glaze
potatoes ñ brown. Serve hot.
Note~ These are healthy ñ delicious –low in calories-but I like to sometimes mix regular potatoes slices with the sweet ñ fry or bake them. Make both like French fries (either bake or fry these also by patting dry after slicing ñ dipping them in seasoned beaten eggs or egg whites only ñ spreading on sprayed with Crisco Buttered spray to a baking sheet ñ bake those babies till light golden brown ñ turning. About 375° to 400 ° F. Oh so deliciously good.
