Sounds wonderful - a possible new Turkey Day menu item.
Thank you, Ms. Sarah!
(gosh, I used to hate my mom's sweet potatoes at Thanksgiving - that casserole sweet crap with marshmallows on top - ACK!) (and thank you, Soos, for that wonderfully descriptive word - ACK! )

I wonder how many that's supposed to serve?

And I might try it without the brown sugar, too, but probably shouldn't do that the first time if I decide to make that for Thanksgiving. Thinking about it.

love sweet potato and that recipe sounds really good

Yum. That sounds marvelous!

I would bet the sweet potatoes would have enough sugar by themselves that you would never miss the brown sugar. I do a sweet potato casserole (no marshmallows for me) and I bake the sweet potatoes before mashing. There's so much sugar brought out from the baking that I rarely add sugar - just butter and spices.

Made a version of this last night and loved it. I took one potato, cut up it with onion. Mixed with the low sodium.soy sauce and a tad of olive oil. Baked as said. It was very good. Oh, the only.reason the vinegar was left out is because I discovered I was out of it.

Sarah, me too - I started roasting asparagus years ago, and learned that I loved my vegetables cooked that way. If you like spice at all - a couple things I do with them - is simply olive oil and then a spice mix usually used in meat rubs (I sometimes make my own, but you can buy them - currently I'm using a bought one - Arizona Rub Rattlesnake. What I don't like about this one is it has brown sugar in it, but the sugars are 1 g per serving so I can live with that. And it gives the veggies good flavor. But I'd never done sweet potatoes this way - so kicked myself when I saw your post. So easy and so good. And I will get the vinegar for next time - cuz I do think that'll give some added flavor.

I got my sweet potatoes today...
I think I'll try it for Thanksgiving.

I am thinking that I need to find room for a small toaster oven in the Short Bus.....I would leave the bread toaster on the shelf if I could find a way to eat more healthy vegs....

Good for you!!! Roasted veggies are the BEST!

Sarah that sounds very good, will give it a try.

I'm thinking this could easily be made on the stovetop, too. Throw it all in a fry pan that doesn't crowd the veggies.

Hi Sarah
I make something very similar with sweet potato and at the end sprinkle them with toasted sesame seeds.
