Sweet Potato Oven Fries with Avocado Dip
This week’s Food Network Chef’s Challenge hosted by I Blame My Mother is Ingrid Hoffman. Ingrid hosts the food network show Simply Delicioso, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen an episode. But her style is everyday foods with a latin twist. I can dig that. Just like these sweet potato fries, with an avocado […]
