The better choice for healthy!

Made for Thanksging yesterday and these Sweet potatoes turned out AWESOME!! Will finish them off tonight, and plan to make more tomorrow since I have extra sweet potatoes....had accidentally gotten over 5 pounds..I did double the sauce, as I had read that suggestion in the comments, and so glad I did! It really needs the extra juice. Also used orange juice instead of lemon. Added a wee bit of cinnamon. After the first 15 min covered, they really only need to cook another 25-30 min.(not the 45 in recipe..unless you want a purée..lol) They were unbelievable! Better than what I used to make with the syrupy sugary cans, adding more brown sugar, and marshmallows. That was just unhealthy! I may add walnuts though. ;)

The flavor of this dish was so poignant and delicious! Not too sweet! Not too heavy! Candied yams are one of my favs, but Maple-Roasted Sweet Potatoes are now my new fav! Absolutely loved this dish!!

Delicious!!

I make these sweet potatoes at least once a week.. they are soo GOOD. I don't even cover them. I put them on my cookie sheet too.. so the casserole dish isn't even really needed. Trust me. I keep them in a storage container for lunch the next day.. YUMM.

Pros: Everything

Nice Flavor!

I really like the process of roasting vegetables. The end result is such a sweet and carmelized product. I can't believe my DH doesn't like sweet potatoes! What's not to like? They're sweet! I recommend this recipe - thanks for sharing!
