Roasted Garlic Sweet Potato Wedges
Crispy, yet soft on the inside, these sweet potato wedges have a good balance of salty and sweet and pair perfectly with most main dishes. Enjoy as a side dish, easy lunch, or creative salad topper!
Oh, hey there and happy Wednesday afternoon! I thought I would pop in quickly with another recipe (guys, I’m on a roll!) just in case you were wondering what to make for dinner tonight. If you are searching for something sweet and salty to go along with your main dish, I got you covered.
If you’ve been reading my blog for a while now or know me well, it will be no surprise to you that I love sweet potatoes. So much so that I could probably eat one every day (and sometimes do) and never get tired of it. Sweet potatoes are not only a great source of nutrition, but delicious too!
My absolute favorite way to eat sweet potatoes is roasted. I think it brings out the flavor so much more than simply baking them and I love the crispy edges. Roasted sweet potatoes make great sides to grilled chicken, burgers, or they even work as a great salad topper!
