Herb Roasted Sweet Potatoes

Bergy's Note:

Holidays are coming and here is yet another sweet potato recipe. The thyme, garlic and red pepper gives great flavor to the sweet potatoes. Instead of olive oil try using Pam or No Oil. Just spray the slices on both sides then shake them in the zip lock bag with the herbs. Use Yams if you prefer.

Oh Bergy, these turned out so good! I love sweet potatoes, and the herbs were great! I halved the recipe, just to make sure I liked it! Delicious!

These are perfect and so easy! I make it even easier by using a pre-cubed yam and sweet potato mix. I wouldn't change anything!

Awesome! These were so easy and so delicious. My husband immediately said he wanted more after his second helping!! I did have to leave in about 10 minutes longer than recipe listed but could be because of my oven. Definitely will make again!!
