A savory twist on sweet potatoes inspired by the Paleo diet. This recipe is an excellent way to use up leftovers and instead left with bland, dried-out food, you’ll have a wonderful dish to bring back life to the already cooked potatoes.

My name is Adam and my specialty is cooking at high temperatures. A grill is my favorite kitchen essential, followed by many other great tools. I am excited to bring a taste of Sear Nation to your very own table.
