Sweet potato fries and fish fingers

Sweet Potato Fries and Fish Fingers: A Kid-Approved Meal

When my son was a baby, he absolutely loved mashed sweet potato purée. It was one of his favorite meals, often mixed with other veggies and chicken. But as he grew older and started feeding himself, he became much pickier with his food. Sweet potatoes, once a staple, had been rejected a few times. So, I decided to try something new—sweet potato oven-baked fries.

This time, it was a hit! The fries were a big success, especially when paired with his all-time favorite condiment, ketchup.

Ingredients:

1 sweet potato

2 tbsp olive oil

pinch of salt

2 fish fingers

ketchup

Method:

Peel the sweet potato and slice into fries.  Toss the fries in olive oil and pinch of salt until they are evenly coated. Bake in the oven at 220 degrees for about 30 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy. While the fries are baking, cook the fish fingers accoring to the package instructions. 

Plate the crispy sweet potato fries alongside the fish fingers. Don't forget the ketchup for dipping!  

This simple meal not only brought sweet potatoes back into the rotation but also made dinner time a little easier and a lot more enjoyable for both of us!

Enjoy!
