Baked sweet potato fries are a perfect way to enjoy the bounty of winter produce. Disclosure: I received a Produce Box, mentioned here, free of charge. I was not expected to write this post. I was not financially compensated for my time. Opinions are my own.

Somethings just truly amaze me.. like landing on the moon, giving birth to a baby, the beauty of a sunset, and local fresh produce in the dead of winter ..

This box from the Produce Box  was delivered to my door step the first week of February.  Deliveries  for 2016 have begun! The Produce Box brings the farmer’s market to your door! You choose what you want to order and skip a week if you need to anytime. As a member you support over 50 local farmers and give back to their communities. SIGN UP HERE.(North Carolina residents only.)

This year, Laura is sharing recipes for EVERYING in your box. Today I’m posting one of them: Paprika Sweet Potato Fries. This pub food is made healthier with use of olive oil and by baking , not frying. I used smoked paprika in lieu of plain for a deep woodsy flavor. Either way, you can’t go wrong. If you haven’t already, be sure to become a member of the Produce Box  so you can enjoy delicious meals that start with local, fresh ingredients.
