    Potato pancakes get a makeover, and so do you! These have lots of vitamin A, which will help keep your skin healthy for the holidays.

    Ingredients
    � 1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled
    � 2-1/2 ounces finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (about 1 cup)
    � 2 egg whites
    � 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
    � 3/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper
    � Parchment paper

    Preparation:
    Heat oven to 425�F. Finely grate sweet potatoes into a bowl. Squeeze grated sweet potatoes in batches to release as much moisture as possible and place in another bowl; fluff with a fork. Stir in cheese, egg whites, rosemary and pepper.

    Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper. Spoon 1 rounded tablespoon batter onto cookie sheet and flatten into a thin, 2- to 2 1/2-inch round. Repeat with remaining batter, leaving 1 inch between rounds.

    Bake until edges and underside are crisp and browned, 13 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven, let cool slightly and remove from parchment. Serve warm with Rosemary-Balsamic Cream . See below.
