Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

Orange & Peanut Sweet Potatoes

fruits, vegetables, grains

2 med. sweet potatoes
1/4 teaspoon finely shredded orange peel
2 tablespoon orange juice
1/2 cup orange juice
2 teaspoon cornstarch
4 tablespoon honey or maple (flvrd) syrup
2 tablespoon peanuts

Peel and slice sweet potatoes crosswise into 1/2-inch thick slices. Place in a 1-quart casserole. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Sprinkle with 2 T orange juice. Micro-cook, covered, on 100% power for 6 to 8 minutes or till potatoes are tender. Let stand, covered, while preparing sauce. For sauce, in a 2-cup measure stir together 1/2 c orange juice, cornstarch, and finely shredded orange peel. Stir in honey or maple (maple-flavored) syrup. Micro-cook, uncovered, on 100% power for 1 to 2 minutes or till thickened and bubbly, stirring every 30 seconds. Stir together sauce and potato slices. Sprinkle with roasted but unsalted peanuts. NOTE: True maple syrup is the best if you have it.
