Grilling season is upon us, so fire up your grill and throw on some . . . potatoes?

Yes, you heard me right: grilled potatoes! Soft and creamy on the inside, crisp and toasty on the outside with just a touch of smoky char, grilled potatoes have become my family’s favorite way to eat America’s favorite vegetable.

Why I Love Microwave Poached Eggs

Poaching a single egg in the microwave offers two key advantages: 

1.) It’s faster than boiling water on the stove. 

2.) It results in just a single cup to clean up afterwards.

In my opinion, it’s easier than poaching via stovetop. Those scraggly egg whites are contained and there’s no need to hover.

For our roasted sweet potato wedges, we needed to cut the wedges wide enough so that they’d maintain their shape once they were cooked. After a quick toss with olive oil, smoked paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper and a visit to a hot 450-degree oven, the wedges were nicely browned on their exteriors and had soft, tender interiors.
