Kicked up Baked Sweet Potatoes

They serve these at a local restaurant here in TX. This is NOT a casserole! These guys are dressed for dinner in their best jackets! The WHOLE potato, baked and split like a white baked potato. You just gotta try these to believe how simple and delish they really are! Enjoy!

Wonderful Curried Sweet Potato Soup

This IS a WONDERFUL SOUP. And look at the list, just a few ingredients! I came up with lots of GREAT ideas for the contest, but when I asked my friends what they liked best, they always mentioned this humble soup! How funny is that? The rum really makes a difference. It is added at the very end, so if you have kids at the table and you’re worried about it, just serve them first and add the rum later. You may want to leave it out altogether, but just let me tell you one more time that the RUM IS a LOVELY ADDITION. I use Patak’s curry paste which is available in Asian stores where I live. Madras is labelled as a hot paste and Korma as mild. I’ve also tried a Patak’s paste called HOT/TRES EPICE which I do NOT RECOMMEND.
