I'm always looking for new potato recipes and I try to change it up a little bit each time for variety. Our youngest isn't very fond of sweet potatoes; though the rest of us love them.

I've tried several ways to get her to eat them, and she'll try them, but she's not a fan. However, she didn't mind these Roasted Sweet Potatoes so for now that's all I can ask for!

Some of our favorite recipes include Taco Baked Sweet Potato Casserole, Sweet Potato Casserole and Crown Royal Mashed Sweet Potatoes.

How do you make Roasted Sweet Potatoes?

For this recipe you'll need sweet potatoes, fresh sage, EVOO, Kosher salt and black pepper. Start by peeling the potatoes, rinse under cold water; then cut into 2 to 3-inch chunks.

Add the potatoes, chopped sage, oil and salt and pepper to a bowl and mix well to coat the potatoes.

Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and roast in a preheated 425 degree F oven for approximately 30 minutes; turning once, until the potatoes have softened and browned.

These Roasted Sweet Potatoes were delicious and as you can see, very easy to prepare.

    Carrie, this sounds delicious. Neither of my kids is overly fond of sweet potatoes, mainly because they end up too soft, not crispy, in most of my preparations. I've got both sweet potatoes and leeks from the CSA farm share, however, so I'll give this a try.

    Thanks!

    I agree that all these flavors go really well together. Sounds like a great dish. I've only ever used leeks in potato soup...
