Candied Sweet Potatoes/Yams (Pressure Cooker Friendly) by Foodiewife

This recipe is slightly adapted from “The Harvey House Cookbook” by George H. Foster and Peter C.

Homemade Refried Beans

Homemade Refried Beans by John Spottiswood

I'm ashamed to say that though I LOVE refried beans, this is the first time I've ever made them myself. It's just so easy to buy them in a can, or at a mexican restaurant, that I haven't bothered. But this recipe is simple and it is definitely worth the effort in my mind. I figure my kids are the true test, since they aren't that…

Roasting garlic in the oven brings out its sweet, nutty flavor. So it doesn't overpower mellow mashed potatoes. If you're looking for a Diabetic and/or Low-Fat Friendly recipe, see my tip below.

Potatoes With Parsley and Garlic - Pommes Parsillade

They are best served immediately when the crisp exterior contrasts so nicely with the warm, soft interior. We served these with a lentils and sausage recipe that I will post shortly.
