Thanksgiving: Roasted Sweet Potatoes



We make this recipe all the time.  It is great on top of wilted spinach salad with feta or goat cheese or alone as a side dish.  Just learn the roasting method and enjoy! :)



Ingredients
(Use about 1 small-medium sweet potato per person, a bit less if eating as a side).
*3 sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped, if you run the sweet potatoes under warm water, they are easier to peel).
*1/2 large red onion, chopped
*2 Tablespoons olive oil
*1 teaspoon sea salt
*1/2 teaspoon salt
*2 cloves garlic, crushed (optional).


Directions:
1.  Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Spread the sweet potatoes and onions evenly on a baking sheet. 
2.  Toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic (optional).
3.  Roast for 20-30 minutes, until tender and beginning to brown.
mmmm...
