“This sweet potato recipe is absolutely delicious,” says Bob Seale. “I roasted them on a prepared baking sheet, flipping them halfway through for extra crispiness. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice before serving added the perfect touch.”
“So easy to make!” says Mary Delaney. “The edges were crispy and chewy, while the insides were perfectly soft. This will definitely be a regular side dish in our rotation.”
“Super simple to prepare,” shares Linda. “I didn’t have oregano, so I substituted Herbs de Provence. I’ll definitely be making this again!”
