Tired and in need of a treat that doesn't give you the guilts? This healthy french fries substitute will hit the spot and leave you wanting more and more.
This recipe is taken from one of my FAVORITE cook books ever, Super Nutrition For Babies by Erlich and Genzlinger. I highly recommend it, not only for new mamas, but anyone interested in food as medicine.
