Zesty Sweet Potato Sticks

Yes, another sweet potato recipe. This one was a big hit. Lizzie couldn't get enough of them.

I found this recipe on the 3 fat chicks on a diet website. I altered I added a little olive oil to it just so the stuff would stick. The original recipe does not call for oil.

2 large sweet potatoes, cute lengthwise into 1/2 inch stick.
1 tbsp or so of olive oil
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp black pepper
salt to taste

directions:
Preheat oven to 450*F. Coat a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Place sweet potato sticks in a large bowl and drizzle with just enough olive oil to lightly coat. Add chili powder, Parmesan cheese, and pepper and toss to coat well. Arrange potato sticks on a baking sheet in single layer. Bake 20 minutes, turn and bake another 10 minutes until golden. Season with salt to taste.

We have some friends who just put olive oil and chili powder on them, so if you're looking for a lower fat alternative, you could leave off the cheese.
