Sweet potatoes and heat go hand in hand together. This simple preparation for Roasted Sweet Potato Slices goes well with both roasted or grilled meats or vegetables.
In the winter I will roast these in the oven, but come summer they are on the barbecue in a vegetable wok.
Enjoy!
Roasted Sweet Potato Slices
