Garlic Roasted Sweet Potatoes

These Garlic Roasted Sweet Potatoes are a fantastic savory side dish for your family dinner or holiday meal. Diced sweet potatoes are seasoned and roasted with fresh herbs along with a head of garlic, which adds amazing flavor! While most sweet potato recipes really play up the sweet factor, this recipe goes in another delicious direction. Savory!

The savory flavors of garlic and herbs really work well with the sweetness of the potatoes, and it all roasts together in one pan.For the best results, try your best to chop the sweet potatoes into evenly sized pieces. If they’re drastically different, they won’t cook evenly and some will be overcooked and some will be undercooked.

1 head garlic excess paper peeled away, but keep the head intact
