Name: Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Ham
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 45 min
Total time: 60 min
Ingredients: 2 sweet potatoes (cut into about ¾-inch cubes (600g)); 10 oz ham (cut into ¾-inch cubes); 1 tablespoon avocado oil (14g (Your favorite oil will be fine)); 1 tablespoon maple syrup (20g); ~¼ tablespoon molasses (5g); 2 teaspoon dried rosemary; 1 teaspoon allspice

This is my new favorite dish! I made it the night before a competition this weekend and then made it again Sunday for something quick to grab out of the fridge.

I don't normally add lots of things when I roast veggies but the addition of the maple syrup and spices really compliment the sweet potatoes and ham. I roasted it just to the brink of burnt, helping the caramelization process and really drawing out even more flavor.

Of course no one in the house likes this but me. I think I can convert the kids in time but The Husband's indifference towards sweet potatoes is here to stay. He's just not a fan.

Here's what I did...

Ingredients

2 sweet potatoes, cut into about ¾-inch cubes (600g)
10 oz ham, cut into ¾-inch cubes
1 tablespoon avocado oil (14g) (Your favorite oil will be fine)
1 tablespoon maple syrup (20g)
~¼ tablespoon molasses (5g)
2 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon allspice

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 Degrees.

Throw everything in a bowl and toss to coat.

Line and spray a large cookie sheet with non-stick spray. Pour the potatoes onto the cookie sheet and spread out as much as possible.

Roast for 40-45 minutes tossing once or twice.

That's it!
