INGREDIENTS

  • 2 sweet potatoes, washed and dried
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 tsp olive oil

DIRECTIONS

preheat oven to 350


chop sweet potatoes with skin on into 1" chunks


whisk together honey and olive oil


pour honey/oil mixture over potatoes


toss to coat


place in baking dish (no need to add oil or spray)


sprinkle with nutmeg (fresh is best but if you have ground that's fine too)


bake at 350 for 30 minutes, turn over pieces 1/2 way through cooking time, check for doneness


allow to cool slightly and enjoy!


I also enjoy these cold right from the fridge. They have a sweet and creamy texture and the nutmeg gives it a feel of pumpkin pie when you don't have any.


My trick is to make a batch of these over the weekend and take 1 cup (2 servings) to have as lunch at work instead of a "lean" frozen meal. It's fresher and a lot less sodium.
