Baked Sweet Potato Chip with Sun Dried Tomato and Pistachio Basil Pesto
Overview
Healthy, tasty, creative and colorful this is a great fall-winter dish to entertain with. I wouldn't exactly call them chips because they aren't crispy-crunchy. I'd call them yamtastic medallions. From a chef's perspective these are yams. How do I know? I used to order them by the case and the ones with the purple-ish skin and orange color inside said, "garnet yams" on the box. Whatever they are, I call this dish simple, easy and delicious. And you will too.
