I am always on the hunt for new recipes to try. Bloggers are a great resource for recipes, making the hunt so much easier. Earlier this month one of the blogs, I follow, Simply Stacie posted a recipe for Sweet Potato Home Fries. My family eats a lot of sweet potatoes. I wanted to give the recipe a try, with our own special twist, maple syrup! I hope you enjoy it! Be sure to pin it and share with your friends!
How many Weight Watchers points is this recipe?
This recipe without any maple syrup is 10 WW points. if you are adding maple syrup to it, be sure to use the Weight Watchers app or website to add in those points.
Which WW Program are these points for?
WW has definitely changed from 2020 to now. They went from three to one plan to multiple plans and back to one plan again. So in 2023, we have just plain old “POINTS.”
