Sweet Potatoes

Do you prefer canned or the regular way to cook them. I ate canned sweet potatoes and added sugar, honey, and butter and it was delicious. They're healthy for you too.

I've never actually tried canned sweet potatoes, maybe I should one of these days.

  Sweet potatoes are full of good nutrients.
  Fresh ones are the best choice.

I buy raw sweet potatoes, cut them into cubes, and put them in my instant pot (in a steamer basket) with 1 cup of water.  Cook under high pressure for 8 minutes (for 2 large potatoes).  Mash and mix in some butter and brown sugar.  Really fast and easy and so good!!   Enjoy!

when it comes to sweet potatoes, I prefer the fresh ones but I have used the one in the can also mostly prepared with brown sugar, cinnamon,and a dash of vanilla flavor and butter. I also like to just bake them and eat them plain.

I had Japanese sweet potato today it's so good.  It's sweeter and creamier than regular sweet potato.  You don't need to add anything to it like butter and cinnamon.

I prefer fresh sweet potatoes; like to bake sometimes  adding a little cinnamon  or butter. I rarely use the one in the can.

I've had sweet potato fries (a little too much that they don't taste that good to me at all anymore) but given these comments, I may have been depriving myself of something that tastes even better.
