Thyme Roasted Sweet Potato Fries with Sun Dried Tomato Ketchup

Sweet Potatoes are hands down one of my favorite foods- they’re amazing when roasted and thrown in salads, pureed into soups and of course baked into delicious fries. 

Made even better with my delicious homemade Sun Dried Tomato Ketchup. While I can’t really call it a traditional ketchup because of it’s cashew base, it is seriously the best condiment for these fries.  I make these fries almost weekly and on occasion we’ve been known to make a meal out of them but they’re really the ideal side dish to any burger or piece of grilled chicken. And…they couldn’t be any easier to make. Here’s how you do it…

Thyme Roasted Sweet Potato Fries with Sun Dried Tomato Ketchup:

Ingredients:
– 2-3 large sweet potatoes, cleaned
