    I really liked the idea of it but perhaps they were too wet because frying was an absolute flop. I tried to bake them and that didn't work out very well either, so I made sweet potato hash out of it for breakfast the next day and it was AWESOME!! And to make it Paleo, all I had to do was sub coconut flour for regular flour.

    Just made these to go with brunch and they were DELICIOUS! I followed the recipe almost exactly only I used a dish towel to wring out the sweet potatoes, 1/4 tsp more salt as my potaoes were quite large and I added a little onion powder for added flavor. The key to reading Melissa's recipes for TABLESPOON is I noticed she uses an actual tablesoon not a measuring spoon. Following this simple difference, the tots looked picture perfect. I would form a long log on my cutting board then cut and shape the tots. It's sticky and messy but so worth it. The dip goes perfectly. Another winner! Thank you Melissa!!!

    Sounded wonderful, but I found these potatoes sticky and bland. Not worth the many steps in this recipe.

    I made these just exactly as shown on the program. They were PERFECT! Tasty and wonderful! My fella wanted more! I have found that I can cook them, cool them and freeze them for later cooked in the oven. They are just as good. Thank you!

    I added minced onions and an egg to the sweet potato mixture and made patties instead of tots, because I had neither the time nor the inclination to form tots. I fried up the patties in a skillet, and they were good. The dipping sauce was delicious as well.

    I saw this on yesterday's new episode of Ten Dollar Dinners and I just had to make it. As much as I wanted it to be good, it was disappointing. I remember Melissa saying to get all of the moisture out of the sweet potatoes, otherwise they'll fall apart. I got every single ounce of water out, but once in the oil, the tots fell apart. I was upset since it took me over an hour to shape them. I put in all of the ingredients too, so it wasn't because of that. Luckily I had only fried half of the batch, so I put the rest in the oven for about 22 minutes. They were very soft when they came out; not like tater tots at all, but delicious nonetheless. The dipping sauce however, is a different story. I doubled the recipe and substituted Greek yogurt for the mayo to make it healthier, since I don't like the taste of mayo. I used French Dijon and that gave it a really bold flavor. The dipping sauce was my favorite part of the recipe and I highly recommend it.
