Sometimes, in addition to taste, I’m all about the colour. This dish definitely meets my expectations for vibrant colours and flavour. Roasted savoury sweet potatoes on top of a bed of herby chimichurri is one side dish I’ll never pass up on. Throw a bunch of healthy delicious items into a blender for a minute and toss some sweet potatoes into the oven … 30 min later it’s done. A delectable roasted sweet potato recipe; hands off delicious simplicity is my main jam.

Truth be told, there’s always a bottle of ketchup in our fridge. This insults me on various levels. I don’t particularly enjoy it unless I’m adding it to a homemade BBQ sauce. In addition, G constantly pulls it from the fridge regardless of what I’ve seasoned the potatoes with. This chimichurri renders ketchup redundant. One point for Sam and way too many to count for ketchup. Hey, I’m finally on the scoreboard!

Other sweet potato dishes we can’t get enough of include this massively popular Sweet Potato Taco Bowl and this Harissa Sweet Potato Hash … a cure to any boring breakfasts out there.
