Crispy Baked Avocado Fries
If you have been following my blog for sometime now you probably have figured out I LOVE avocados. So when they were 4 for $5 at the market I had to buy them. I thought I had tried everything I could think of using an avocado… Guacamole, Avocado Egg Salad, Avocado Grilled Cheese, and simply dicing them up and putting them in just about anything. Then I realized I have never made avocado fries! WHAAAAT?

Grilled Sweet Potato Fries
As soon as it gets warm outside I am ready to fire up the grill so get ready for some grilling recipes!. It makes my life so much easier. Grilling is fast, makes food taste even more delicious, and the best part, very little clean up.
I have been on a sweet potato kick lately. I’m really starting to like them. I just needed to get a little more creative with the ingredients. So I decided to make grilled sweet potato fries.
Grilling them gave them the perfect crunch on the outside and the combination of fresh cilantro and citrus is so good, you will keep going back for more! In fact, my husband did. Again and again until they were gone.
You can boil the sweet potatoes the day before and store in fridge overnight. Then slice up and grill the next day for a quick side dish. You could also cook these in a cast iron skillet if you do not have a grill.
