 Remember the "put an egg on it" fad that invaded our lives about five years ago? I have a slight twist that I call "put it on a sweet potato."
When I don't have time or energy to invoke the spirit of Julia Child, I microwave a sweet potato, pile my leftovers on it and ... well, eat it. Whether I've got leftover chili, roasted veggies or mac and cheese, I spoon it over that soft, steamy sweet potato and dinner is done. (Dubious of a food editor who microwaves her sweet potatoes? Read this and you'll learn why I do it.)
I've shared some sweet potato ideas below, plus we've also got a series of stories about COVID-19 and restaurants that you'll want to catch up on. There's also a fascinating read about something called The Seitan Appreciation Society that will make you re-think the way you use Facebook!

Reporter Julia Tausch, who also happens to be a member of the SAS, introduces us to this amazing Facebook group (and kind of makes us want to join it).
