Sweet potatoes are the perfect side dish for roast, chicken or just plain! With just a few common pantry ingredients you can have these ready to eat in no time!
One of the best ways to eat sweet potatoes is by roasting them.
How do I roast sweet potatoes?
Peel your sweet potatoes and cut into 1-2 inch cubes. Smaller cubes will result in a quicker cooking time and may turn out a little crispier.
Toss sweet potatoes with oil and spices. My go-to spice variation is garlic and smoked paprika (regular paprika works too!)
Bake until crispy!
Should I peel my sweet potatoes
I go back and forth on this one. It’s really a personal preference, but sweet potato skins are edible. Try it both ways and see which one you prefer.
