- 2 medium sweet potatoes peeled and chopped into even chunks
- 1 - 2 Tablespoons avocado or olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
- optional seasonings: cinnamon chili powder, cayenne pepper
Prep: Preheat oven to 400°F. Chop sweet potatoes into medium-sized chunks. Not too small, but not too big either. Try to make them around the same size so that they are all done cooking at the same time.
Roast: Place sweet potatoes, oil, salt and pepper in a large bowl and toss to combine. Pour onto a baking sheet and cook for 30-45 minutes, tossing once half-way through. Remove from oven, taste and season with additional salt if needed. Serve warm.
