Sweet potatoes bring a lot to the table!

cookbook author erin clarke of well plated

Sweet potatoes are one of those ingredients I always keep around.

They’re hearty, naturally sweet, packed with fiber (and fiber is having a moment, y’all), and somehow manage to work in every meal of the day. Yes, really!

I love that they’re just as at home in a skillet at breakfast as they are tossed into a salad for lunch or baked into brownies and cookies.

If you’ve ever found yourself staring at a sweet potato on the counter wondering what to do with it next, this roundup is for you. These recipes show just how flexible—and delicious—sweet potatoes can be all day long!
