Snobby Joes and Sweet Potato Fries

Day 14: 'Snobby' Joes were well named, because although the boys and I thought they were tasty, the girls turned up their noses snobbishly. Good thing we also had sweet potato fries, of which we could have eaten triple the amount! For those you cut a sweet potato (or three) into thing spears, place on a baking sheet, and dab with 2 tbsp coconut oil. Roast at 400 for 15 minutes, stir and roast another 15 minutes or until desired cripsness.
