I love roasted vegetables!  I really am on a huge roasted veggie kick this winter.  Sweet potatoes are one of my favorite vegetables, so this was a fantastic new recipe!

Ingredients:

  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons and 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons and 1/2 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • Honey

Directions:

  • In a ziploc bag, combine brown sugar, chili powder, salt, and cayenne pepper; shake to mix the ingredients. Add olive oil. Add sweet potatoes and toss to coat. Allow sweet potato mixture sit on counter for 10 minutes, turning once.
  • Spray a 11-in. x 7-in. x 2-in. baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Add sweet potato mixture to dish and drizzle with honey.
  • Bake, uncovered, at 400 degrees F for 40-45 minutes or until potatoes are tender, stirring every 10 minutes.
