Perfect side dish to burgers, wings or even atop a salad, AND they're pretty healthy too! Got to love when delicious food is also good for us!
Garlic Cheese Sauce
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Place the sweet potatoes on a large baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Add the flour, creole seasoning, thyme, paprika, cumin, cayenne, salt + pepper. Gently toss with your hands or two spatulas to evenly coat. Bake for 15-20 minutes, then flip and bake for 15-20 minutes more. You want the sweet potatoes to be tender, but crisp. Serve with the cheese sauce (below).
Chese Sauce
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Next add the garlic, cook for 30 seconds then add the milk. Toss the shredded cheese with the flour in a small bowl. Add the cheese to the warm milk and stir until melted and smooth, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm until ready to serve. Serve over the fries.
