Easy Slow Cooker Baked Sweet Potatoes

You know that saying "You learn something new everyday" ?

Whelp, 

I guess my daily dose of knowledge today came via Wikipedia.

It began with a curious google and ended with discovery that a sweet potato was a actually a vegetable.

Sweet Potatoes are vegetables!!

I know, I know.

I dont get out much, dont judge my exaggerated level of excitement.

Tee hee.

I've been making baked potatoes in the slow cooker for many years.

(Even got my recipe published in a Gooseberry Patch Cookbook)

 Here is the link to see  the recipe:

Slow Cooker Baked Potatoes

Oh My.

I just had a thought.

Since sweet potatoes are considered a vegetable,

Does this mean I can serve them as a side dish to regular  potatoes?

Yes ma'am.

Taters with a side of taters.

I like the sound of that.
