 Hmmm, a germ of an idea here.  I also like baked sweet potatos.  I am fond
of butter, brown sugar and cinnamon.  I will play around with chipotle
(powder or in Adobo) in that mix.  I'll be trying a straight-up baked SP,
maybe cutting back on the butter, to lower the heart attack quotient a bit
<G>  It ought to be good, as I liked the Chipotle - Cranberry Relish recipe
that popped up on the list about a year ago.
Blue skies,
Frank

Ooooh, no...*sweet* potato.  One of my fav-o-rite eats is baked sweet tater
with Bro. Jim's chipotle sauce, so.......I can conceive baking off a tater
or two, but keeping it somewhat firm.  Quarter the sweet tater lengthwise,
peel, roll in some chipotle sauce (I'd wager dried would work well too), but
not too much, pop the quarter into a chile, batter, fry, and eat.

May be too hot w/the sauce for some of you moderates; I'm sure it'd be tasty
with just sweet potato too.

And now, back to writing papers and grading tests (bah)....or going out and
finding that dude who sells big ole bags of sweet taters from the back of
his truck...about 15 pounds for 6 bucks (small, bright orange,
oh-so-sweet...).  Hmm.

Peace, Hendrix, and Chiles.......
