Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Cinnamon-Honey-Butter

Holiday Recipes, Sides |

Light, Easy & Only 5-Ingredients

Don’t judge!  This is actually a pretty light dish!  The butter and honey are minimal.   Just enough to impart a rich, slightly sweet flavor profile.  Deelish!

Ya gotta love it when something delicious and holiday-worthy is also decently light and healthy.  This is one of those dishes.  The star of the show are the sweet potatoes, which are high in fiber, vitamins B, C, potassium, magnesium and copper.  They get their orange color from beta-carotene, which is a pigment and an antioxidant.  Score!

APC Smart-Planning Tip:

Save time by peeling and dicing the sweet potatoes 1-2 days before.  Store in a zip-loc and label:  Roasted Sweet Potatoes.  Easy to assemble and roast the day of.
