Roasted Sweet 'taters Ingredients

16 oz Sweet potatoes - Washed	1/4 ts Ground nutmeg
1 ts Olive oil	1/8 ts Ground cloves
1/2 ts Salt - coarse kosher is best.	1/8 ts Pepper - coarse ground

Instructions for Roasted Sweet 'taters

Preheat oven to 425F.

Cut sweet potatoes into about 3/4 inch cubes (large dice). Leave the skins on removing only the hard knob at each end. Alternatively you might cut them in wedges or slice them in 1/2 inch disks.

Combine sweet potatoes and remaining ingredients in a bowl (or plastic bag); toss gently to coat. Place potatoes on a baking sheet (do not overlap); bake at 425F for 25 minutes or until very tender.

If you're using your oven for something else (at a lower temperature) that's fine, just adjust the cooking time up a bit.

Quick and easy. I might serve them with some french onion dip or possibly ranch dressing on the side. No improvement necessary, they are great just the way they are.
