โœจ Quick Look at the Recipe:

Kristyโ€™s POV:
Sometimes the simplest combos are the absolute best! ๐Ÿ’›
These sweet potato rounds are one of my favorite side dishes because theyโ€™re easy enough for a weeknight, fancy enough for a holiday table, and they hit every flavor note!

๐Ÿฅ„ Step-by-Step Cooking Guide:

Prepare the Sweet Potatoes:

  • Slice sweet potatoes into 1/4-inch rounds โ€” not too thick or too thin for best roasting!

Season and Roast:

  • Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

  • Arrange in a single layer and roast, flipping halfway through for even browning.

Finish with Toppings:

  • Sprinkle with feta and drizzle with honey immediately after roasting so the heat slightly softens the cheese.

  • Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

๐Ÿ›’ Ingredient Details and Substitution Tips:

  • Sweet Potatoes: Any variety works โ€” jewel, garnet, or Japanese sweet potatoes are all delicious.

  • Olive Oil: Use olive oil spray for fewer W-W points if you prefer.

  • Feta Cheese: Crumbled light feta saves points without sacrificing flavor.

  • Honey: You can substitute with a light drizzle of agave for a vegan-friendly option.

  • Fresh Herbs: Rosemary and thyme add extra depth, but theyโ€™re optional.

๐Ÿฝ Recipe Variations and Serving Suggestions:

Flavor Variations:

  • Spicy-Sweet: Sprinkle sweet potatoes with a pinch of cayenne before roasting.

  • Herb-Roasted: Toss potatoes with chopped rosemary or thyme before roasting.

  • Balsamic Drizzle: Swap honey for a drizzle of aged balsamic vinegar after roasting!

Serving Ideas:

  • Serve alongside grilled chicken, salmon, or a hearty salad.

  • Use as a fun appetizer platter at parties โ€” stack with toothpicks for easy bites.

  • Add a few nuts like toasted walnuts or pecans for extra texture!

๐ŸงŠ Storage and Make-Ahead Information:

  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

  • Reheating: Reheat in the oven at 375ยฐF for 5โ€“8 minutes to re-crisp.

  • Make-Ahead Tip: You can roast the sweet potatoes ahead and reheat just before serving. Add feta and honey fresh when serving.

โ“ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Can I make these vegan?
A: Yes! Use maple syrup instead of honey and skip the feta or use a dairy-free alternative.

Q: How thin should I slice the rounds?
A: About 1/4 inch thick โ€” thick enough to hold their shape but thin enough to get tender and crispy.

Q: Can I make them even lower in points?
A: Absolutely โ€” use olive oil spray instead of full tablespoons of oil, and reduce honey drizzle.

Q: Do they taste good cold?
A: Theyโ€™re best warm, but theyโ€™re also delicious chilled as a salad topping!
