  1. Hey Steve, I have been eating frozen sweet potato fries for the longest time. I love them. I might have to try out this recipe.

    I do not have a work out blog…yet. :) But I have been working out and eating well for a long time now, so if you need any suggestions with exercises or workouts I would be glad to help.

  2. Hey Josh Thanks for the offer.

    I’ve been working out for quite a while now and I’m really starting to see the muscles pop. The fat is pretty much all gone.

    I really like these fries but every now and then I need the real potato kind.

    Where do you get your frozen sweet Potato fries? I haven’t seen them yet.

  3. OMG I love this sweet potato fries recipe too! Actually I think everything I’ve tried from the Biggest Loser Cookbook has been good. The author is coming out with a new book soon and I already preordered it on amazon (The Most Decadent Diet Ever – Devin Alexander)
    I’ve never seen frozen sweet potato fries either, I’ll have to look out for them. They aren’t fried are they?

  4. Hi Clara,

    I can’t say enough good things about the BL cookbook. I’ll have to watch out for Devin’s new book when it launches.

    I still have seen the frozen sweet potato fries anywhere. I just buy a lot of sweet potatoes put them through my fry cutter and freeze them now.

    • I have been trying to find a spf cutter. What brand is yours and does it work with ease?
