they are similar consistency to carrots yes, and the flavour was very similar although a little more starchy. ive had no problems digesting them at all.

I like raw sweet potatoes juiced with granny smith apple and a touch of added cinnamon. It tastes like pumpkin pie but better. For a real treat, I add raw milk cream and some vanilla extract - it's heaven in a glass.

No, just juiced. I used to like raw sweet potato chopped/grated but lately I've found the fiber upset my stomach so I'd rather have it juiced or cooked.

We use spiralised sweet potatoes as pasta ;) Squeeze in some lemon juice and a pinch of salt..leave to sit for a while as this takes out some of the starch and makes it a bit softer. You can add olive oil and dehydrate after this but I usually can't wait that long ;) Top with your favourite pesto or marinara sauce on a bed or green..hey presto ;) Yum!

Hi Gail ;)

From 'Rainbow Green Live Cuisine'

Creamy Yam Mash

2 Yams
2 Tablesppons coconut butter
1 Teaspoon Celtic salt

Variation:
Add cinnamon to taste

Blend Yams in food processor with the 'S' blade until relatively smooth. Place in a glass bowl and cover with coconut mylk or water. Place bowl in dehydrator for about 3 hours at 145 degrees and then at 115 degrees for 3 hours. Remove from dehydrator when liquid has mostly evaporated. Blend in a high power blender, adding remaining ingredients.(only a high power blender will make it very creamy)

You could use them in a sweet potato pie. I just recently made a raw pumpkin pie from the Cafe Gratitude recipe. It was wonderful. I bet raw sweet potatoes would be delish.

Just take about 3 cups of sweet potatoes
The meat and water from one young coconut
Pumpkin pie spices: cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg
Add agave to taste....around 1/4 cup
Lecithin will thicken it but I assume you can use chia powder or flax also....might be a different texture.

Make your standard crust using pecans, dates, etc.

It's delish.

4 cups sweet potato
1 1/2 cups pecans
1/2 cup dates,soaked
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp celtic salt
1/4 cup raw honey

Place 1/2 cup pecans, sweet potato, dates, cinnamon and touch of water if needed in food processor. In a separate dish combine remaining pecans, salt and honey, scatter over the top.

This is a favorite at the raw potlucks or anyplace else I take it.
