Baked Sweet Potato with Feta and Honey


This dish makes an excellent side for any meal. I love sweet potatoes and I love feta. Throw in a few more things that bring out the flavors of both and voila! I will be remaking this in a couple weeks for Thanksgiving dinner!



Ingredients

  • 3-4 sweet potatoes
  • 3 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 Tablespoons honey
  • 1 Tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled (I use low fat and it tastes just the same to me)
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (for a little extra kick)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Peel sweet potatoes and cut into bite sized cubes. 
  3. Toss the sweet potato cubes in oil and bake on  parchment covered baking sheet for 20-25 minutes.
  4. Drizzle with honey, balsamic vinegar, feta and chili flakes. Season with salt and pepper. 


My Rating: 
I feel like I say this all the time. But soooo delicious and easy! Seriously, I am a little obsessed with feta. So if I can find something that I can pair with it, I will!
I served this with Smoky Roasted Chicken.
