Sweet Potato Noodles with Sage Brown Butter Sauce

I love going through my pins on Pinterest- and selecting a new recipe to try.  I have a million pins (exaggeration) of sweet potato recipes- but this one had WITH SAGE BROWN BUTTER SAUCE!  I would eat grasshoppers with a brown butter sauce so I knew this recipe would satisfy.  And it did!  I had to slice the sweet potatoes with the long side of a grater.  It worked okay.  What is nice about this recipe is that it is a change from "sweet."  I will definitely make this again!  (and if nothing else, the new word "inspiralized" was so inspiring I had to try it!)
