I’ve been doing really well with the 2011 Post A Day Challenge. However, this was Hubster and my first weekend home this year and we finally had a chance to spend sometime together (okay, so we were running errands and going to doctor’s appointments, but at least we had some quality time together). We had been craving Indian food all weekend and I promised Hubster tonight’s dinner would be a delicious Indian meal! I know it’s a little late to post, but I didn’t want to miss a third day in a row…

Sweet Potato, Potato & Spinach Curry

Sweet Potato, Potato & Spinach Curry

Ingredients:
1 sweet potatoes, 1 potato (two if smaller than sweet potato), 1 pkg. baby spinach, 2 tsp. minced garlic, 1 tsp. ground cumin, 1 tsp. cayenne pepper, 1/2 tsp. turmeric powder, 1 tsp. coriander powder, 1 tsp. salt, 2 tbsp of olive oil

Directions:
Cube potatoes and set aside. Wash baby spinach and remove stems. Over medium heat warm olive oil, garlic, cumin, cayenne, turmeric and coriander. Add sweet potatoes and cook for a few minutes. Add potatoes and cover. Cook potatoes until softened. Add spinach and salt. Allow spinach to wilt. Serve hot.

Hubster really enjoyed this. It combined two types on potatoes and incorporated a vegetable he doesn’t like (spinach) into a flavorful dish!

How was your weekend?

One of Hubster’s weaknesses  is potato chips. I decided to make him a slightly healthier snack, by making my own.

Ingredient:
Sweet potatoes, olive oil, fresh ground seas salt

Directions:
Slice sweet potatoes into thin slices (I cut them in half and used my food processor to slice them). Lightly mist slices with olive oil (I used a plastic spray bottle from the dollar store).  Lay slices on a crisper sheet in a single layer, sprinkle with seas salt. Bake at 250°F until crispy, thinner slices take about 45-55 minutes.

*Next time I’m planning to toss the chips with chili powder before baking them.

*I would also like to make these using blue russet potatoes, but I just can’t seem to find them in my rural area.

*Use herbs to create any flavor potato chip you like.

What’s your favorite flavor potato chip?
