BBQ time!

Oooh, this is a good one for BBQing time! I got this recipe from a local magazine when we took our vacation to Florida earlier this month. Who knew I'd come back with a keeper of a recipe? I didn't, that's for sure! I figured we'd just come back with lots of super fun memories and some left over sand in our bags!!! ;)

Grilled Sunshine Sweet Potatoes

2 pounds sweet potatoes; peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
1 tsp orange zest
1 cup orange juice
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 TBSP butter
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/2 tsp salt

Overlap 2 large sheets of heavy duty aluminum foil. Place sweet potatoes in the center and crimp foil to form a bowl. Add remaining ingredients and carefully close foil crimping well to ensure no spillage. Place on heated grill and cook for 30 mins or until potatoes are tender. Serve warm.
Makes 6 servings.
