Beet and sweet potato fries
By Marie Rizzio for Taste of Home – submitted by Lori, Yorkville CSAThese oven-baked root veggies make a standout side dish with a lovely peppercorn dipping sauce—though they also go well with ketchup. Easy to prepare, colorful, delicious, and healthier than French fries. If pink and green peppercorns are difficult to come by, you can use a little crushed red pepper, aleppo or marash pepper, urfa biber, or your favorite peppery mixed blend.

- ½ tsp green peppercorns crushed
- ½ tsp coarsely ground pepper divided
