Here is another way to enjoy beta carotene rich sweet potatoes. They are a simple, delicious and nutritious afternoon snack or side dish for a meal.
Ingredients:
4 sweet potato(es) -- scrubbed and cut into 8 wedges
1 tbsp olive oil -- approximate
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp paprika
1 lime -- OPTIONAL; cut in wedges
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Put potatoes on a baking sheet and sprinkle lightly with olive oil, cumin, paprika, and salt & pepper. Toss to coat and spread evenly over pan in a single layer.
3. Place in oven and set timer for 40 min. Check a few times to stir potatoes.
4. Serve with ketchup, ketchup mixed with bar-b-q sauce, or wedges of lime.
See OTL video in which I cut sweet potatoes for the soup and for sweet potato fries.
