Curry Roasted Sweet Potatoes – Easy, Healthy, Crave-Worthy Vegan Side Dish Spiced with Curry Powder, Cinnamon and Salt.

Sometimes you have to be grateful for the simple things in life… an afternoon nap with a snuggle puppy… the crisp bite of fresh home-brewed ginger beer… taking a walk in the ocean breeze with your family. Then, of course, there are simple recipes. You know I love to cook, but like every other busy person I relish easy concoctions that can be thrown together in a minute or two, but taste like something much more complex.

These roasted sweet potatoes are the perfect solution when you’re looking for a simple side dish. The trick is getting your roasting pan nice and hot before adding the potatoes. The quick burst of heat helps to caramelize them, bringing out the best of their naturally sweet, robust flavor. When combined with a sultry sprinkle of curry powder they are absolutely addicting. Let’s just say these never make it very far from the pan.

MY OTHER RECIPES

I’m all for exciting, exotic recipes that take us out of our comfort zone. But sometimes, all you need is a little curry powder to make the ordinary into something extraordinary. On a  weeknight, there is nothing better than being able to put together something easy and delicious. I’m grateful, indeed.

Now, about that nap with a snuggle puppy…
