With Thanksgiving just a week away, we are busy trying to figure out exactly what we are going to eat this year. Our go-to staples–my Best Ever No-Fuss Mashed Potatoes, Parmesan Roasted Brussels Sprouts, 5-Ingredient Pumpkin Pie, & Oh-So-Easy Caramel Apple Pie–have already made the list, but this year I thought I might try something a little different–and a little simpler–for the other sides.
Taking just a few minutes to pull together, these Parmesan roasted sweet potatoes totally fit the bill! Not only that, they are completely delicious & also pack a powerful punch of nutrition. While they’d be great for Thanksgiving, they are easy enough to make anytime!
Here is what you need:
8 small sweet potatoes, cut into wedges 2 tablespoons olive oil 6 oz. Parmesan Cheese ( shredded) 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepperStep 1: Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash potatoes then cut into wedges. Rub the potatoes with the oil and season with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper.
Step 2: Bake cut side down, on a rimmed cookie sheet until golden brown; 18-22 minutes (turn potatoes to other side of wedge at half-way point)
Step 3: Turn oven to broil; turn potatoes over so that the skin is down. Then sprinkle a generous layer of Parmesan cheese over the potatoes. Broil until cheese is melted and golden brown.
Step 4: Sprinkle with more pepper, if desired and enjoy!

Do you eat the peel?
Yes, you can eat the skin of the sweet potatoes. :)
I tried this for dinner tonight. It was really good. It was something different for me to try that was quite easy to prepare. Thanks!
Thanks for the recipe! I feel like I've come a little late to the roasting party. We just realized that we can roast broccoli--so good! I will most likely be roasting a pan of veggies for a simple Thanksgiving side, as well. Yum!
I love sweet potatoes, I will definitely be making these very soon!
Perfect timing for me! I have sweet potatoes that I want to use up and am tired of always doing sweet potato fries. I'll have to try this now instead! Thanks for sharing! :-)
