Really good sweet potatoes! Tasty combination of sweet and spicy. I would use less oil next time, ours were a little greasy. Loved that they were baked on parchment, easy to serve and clean up. Thanks for posting the recipe.

Good for my new diet and I've come to the realization I'm never again going to look fabulous in a bathing suit. But, who cares, when I go to the beach with my beautiful daughter...nobody's looking at ME. Made for Pantry Challenge recipe tag.

We love these sweet potatoes so much, I mix a bunch of the seasoning up and keep it in a jar so that I just toss the sweet potato slices in olive oil and sprinkle on the seasoning mix. Makes for an even quicker dish. Thanks so much for such a simple and delicious way to enjoy sweet potatoes. Even those who don't particularly like sweet potatoes like these!
