To begin making Hot Sweet Potato Slaw I peeled the sweet potatoes and used my mandoline for getting the potatoes shredded.

You can use a regular grater but I used the julienne attachment on my mandoline to get long strips.

After the 8 cups of sweet potatoes were prepared (4 potatoes), I dumped them into a large mixing bowl.

I poured some olive oil over the potatoes and then used my spaghetti spoon to toss the potatoes.

Next I sprinkled in some ground cinnamon, pepper and a bit of salt.

I used the spaghetti spoon again to toss in the seasonings.

Once the seasonings were incorporated into the potatoes I transferred them into a large casserole dish that I had sprayed with cooking spray.

I baked the sweet potatoes in a preheated 400F oven for 50 – 60 minutes.

I took the sweet potatoes out about every 15 minutes to toss them with the spaghetti server again.

Once they were cooked to my liking I removed them from the oven and transferred them to a serving dish.

Hot Sweet Potato Slaw adds a burst of colour to any table.  It provides a nice light side because it is shredded.

This recipe provides a different option for using and serving this versatile vegetable.

Enjoy this tasty side on festive occasions or just to brighten up a week night meal as a healthy alternative to regular potatoes.
