Roasted “Buttery” Herbed Sweet Potatoes
Inroduction
About this Recipe
By: Caitlin Greene
These potatoes came out so “BUTTERY” without the butter, so if you are avoiding lactose, this will work for you! While I used Japanese sweet potatoes for this dish, you could easily substitute regular sweet potatoes or white potatoes. Of course, adding herbs for flavor is a must for me, so making these crispy potatoes “stacks” instead of a creamy casserole was the perfect time to add a tasty mix of spices. The great thing about these potatoes is that they go with any protein of your choosing! They are also delicious as leftovers with eggs – fantastic for meal prep!
What You’ll Need For This Recipe:
1 1/2 pounds of thinly sliced Japanese Sweet Potatoes (I used a mandolin but you could slice them)
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons melted ghee
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
½ teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
