ROASTED SWEET POTATOES

Sweet potatoes are so good for you. They are full of vitamins, A and C, fiber and potassium.  We eat them a lot of different ways but this is one of our favorites.

2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
3 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
2 tablespoons oil (I use Canola)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
 
Mix all ingredient together in a large bowl with a spoon or whisk.  Add sweet potatoes and toss to coat. Spread evenly on a baking sheet covered with Reynolds wrap.  Cook in preheated 400 degree oven turning a couple times to keep from burning for 40 to 45 minutes. Can sprinkle with more salt.  Makes 3 to 4 servings.
 
Enjoy!
 
Note:  Ingredients can be doubled or tripled depending on how many people you are serving.

  1. I love roasting sweet potatoes. These look wonderful.

  2. These look delicious and simple! Love the addition of honey and cinnamon :)

  3. These look very tasty, Judy. And easy to make—thank you!

  4. What kind of mustard is ‘golden’ mustard? I want the correct kind when I make these yummy lookin’ taters.

  5. I also love baked sweet potatoes. There are so many recipes using sweet potatoes but still my heaven is baked and steamed sweet potatoes. I even love to throw them in the oven that way with no seasonings at all. It’s a great, delish and healthy snack right?
