Baked Sweet Potato Fries with Lime Mayo Dipping Sauce

We're on Spring Break this week with B and I should be cooking more since I have the time!  But, I wanted a fairly easy dinner tonight so I did my French Dip.  I have had this recipe from Epicurious for sweet potato fries for a few weeks and thought this would be a good meal to serve them with.  The dipping sauce was really good and would be great with not only these fries but also a Southwest theme meal or pulled pork...or anything!

Ingredients:
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into "fries"
2 tsp olive oil
Salt & Pepper

For Lime Sauce:
1/3 c light mayo
1/4 tsp finely grated lime zest
2 tsp fresh lime juice
Chopped cilantro (optional - I omitted)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees
In a large bowl, toss sweet potatoes, olive oil, salt & pepper to coat
Line baking sheet with aluminum foil and evenly place potatoes on it
Bake for 15 minutes, remove from oven and turn the potatoes.  Return to oven and cook another 10-15 minutes

Meanwhile combine lime sauce ingredients and keep chilly until you are ready to serve.  I also make a Cajun mayo dip by simply putting mayo and cajun spices in a small bowl and mixing.
