Prep Time7 minsCook Time45 minsTotal Time52 mins

This recipe elevates the sweetness of the potato with a herbaceous-tangy salsa. A change up from a typical sweet potato casserole.
Serve alongside a grilled steak, pork chops or roasted chicken.

 4 Large sweet potatoes, rinsed and sliced in half, lengthwise
 Olive oil and salt for roasting
Herb Salsa
 3 tbsp Olive oil
 ¼ cup Cilantro, chopped
 ¼ cup Basil, chopped
 2 Small garlic cloves, minced
 2 Limes, zested and 1 juiced (about 1 tbsp)
 Salt and pepper to taste
1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Roast halved sweet potatoes, rubbed with oil, on parchment paper lined sheet pan, cut side down.
About 30-40 minutes, until completely soft.

2

After sweet potatoes have cooked, let slightly cool and scoop out “inners” and mash in a medium bowl.

3

While potatoes are roasting, mix salsa ingredients together. Whisk together and taste. Add salt and pepper if needed.

4

Serve mashed potatoes with salsa drizzled over. Either from serving platter or large bowl.
