SO HOW'D IT GO?
These were really nicely flavoured. I made mine out of potatoes, yams and carrots. Yum.
Yum! Very tasty. I actually let mine sit in lime juice overnight before I baked them... delicious!
Loved these - so tasty and so simple! Served as a side to "Chicken" Taquitos. Will be doing it again :)
