Roasted baby sweet potatoes have concentrated sweet potato flavor, so you don’t need much else to make them tasty. Roast until caramelized, and make sure you eat the skin; that’s where most of the nutrients are.
This recipe is great because it allows for maximum personalization.
If you prefer spicy potatoes, feel free to kick the flavor up with cumin or chili powder.
If you like it a bit sweeter, honey and cinnamon make a delicious combination.
Or, just keep it simple, with a squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkle of sea salt when the potatoes are done.
If you’ve got a Trader Joe’s in the area, we also love their seasonings and spices. Featured here is the Everything But The Bagel seasoning. We also tried the Everything But The Elote blend as well.
Both are highly recommended! If you don’t have a TJ’s in your area – 1) I’m sorry. 2) Try these homemade versions – Bagel and Elote.
