Thyroid scan and uptake uses small amounts of radioactive materials called radiotracers, a special camera and a computer to provide information about your thyroidâs size, shape, position and function that is often unattainable using other imaging procedures.
Instructions. 1  Preheat oven to 450 degrees (F). 2  Peel the sweet potatoes (if preferred) and cut off the pointy ends. 3  Place the sweet potato wedges in a large bowl, then add in the olive oil, salt, sugar, seasoning, and black pepper.  Arrange the sweet potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, then turn on the broiler and bake for another 3-5 minutes, or until they're well browned and crispy. Keep an eye here - it's easy to burn when the broiler is on! Cool wedges on pan for 5 minutes, then serve at once!
Always remember that microwave ovens may vary, so this does take some âtrial and errorâ testing. Start out with about five minutes. After the first five minutes, check the potato and turn it over. Cook an additional five minutes, or until you have reached the desired tenderness. If you are cooking the sweet potato to make fries in the oven, remember to not cook them as long. If you wait too long, the potato will not be easy to keep together for slicing. If you are looking for a way to make mashed sweet potatoes, this is a great way to soften the potatoes.
