Savory Roasted Sweet Potatos / Yams

Looking for a yummi side dish with your meal?! Sweet potatoes are wonerful! They don't need all the extra marshmallowee sugaree additive, as they are perfectly sweet on their own.

1/3 of a sweet potato is 1 block. For a 4 block zone meal, you can have 2/3 of a sweet potato for 2 blocks, and 12 spears of asparagus for 1 block, and 1/2 a slice of bread (if you gotta have your bread) is 1 block. This is only your carb portion. You still need to add 4 blocks of meat, and 4 blocks of fat.

Savory Roasted Sweet Potatos / Yams
Ingredients:
Desired number of sweet potatos (make extra to warm up later!)
Olive oil
Chopped Rosemary
Sea Salt
Pepper

Directions:
Peel sweept potatos (if desired - I like the skin!) and cut into 1/2 to 3/4 inch cubes. spread in single layer in a jelly roll pan. Drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt, pepper and rosemary. -You could also put these all in a bowl and really coat them well.

Bake at 350-375 degrees for 45 minutes to an hour. Edges will be crispy brown and may caramelize in the pan. YUM!
