Roasted Garlic Parmesan Sweet Potatoes
I love sweet potatoes. They always show up during the holidays to go with our beef filets, Easter ham, and Thanksgiving turkey. Most of the time though they are cooked with butter, brown sugar, and marshmallows. Super good, but not something you should be eating more than a few times a year. This recipe for Roasted Garlic Parmesan Sweet Potatoes turns these vegetables from sweet treat to savory side.
Probably one of the reasons I love baked sweet potatoes so much is they always add such color to your plate of food.
A popular saying is you eat with your eyes first and sweet potatoes prove that point.
On the other hand, the downfall of baked sweet potatoes is they sometimes have a hard time getting a crispy texture.
Adding Parmesan cheese helps add almost a coating on the outside of the potatoes and gives a slightly crunchy texture.
A quick and simple side dish to serve with a steak and these delicious stuffed mushrooms.
