Take-out Tuesday, Holiday Sweet Potato Rounds
Here is an easy way to add sweet potatoes to your holiday meals
Not only are they easy but they look elegant
They can be prepared ahead of time and are simple to serve
They can be prepared for 1 or a crowd
Choose large sweet potatoes and cut them in fairly thick slices discarding the ends
Place them in a pot of boiling salted water and cook for about 20 minutes
until potatoes are fork tender but still firm enough to keep their shape
Pat dry and place slices on a greased baking sheet
Gently mash the centers with the tines of a fork
Now brush or spoon garlic butter over slices
It will fill in the crevices
After baking at 425 for 25 minutes, top with Parmesan
Return to oven for 5 minutes to melt cheese
Note: You can prepare sweet potatoes ahead of time, refrigerate, then pop them in the oven with the Parmesan for 10 minutes to heat up right before serving
Garnish with fresh rosemary and serve
Plan on 1-2 slices per person

Ooooooo these sound delicious! I am pinning this… we would enjoy this at any meal.
Thanks for more inspiration!
So easy, and just right! Thanks Nancy!
Jenna, I am a huge fan of sweet potatoes prepared any way. These look so delicious and a must try recipe. Happy Tuesday!
Thanks Pam, happy cooking!
What a great recipe Jenna. Delicious and easy too!
Thanks Emily, I’m all about easy!
These are beautiful! What a nice recipe, and I love anything you can make ahead during the holidays!
Thanks Dorothy! I bet you are cooking up a storm!
I sure am! I made my cheesecake and pie dough today, tomorrow the pies and the stuffing! How about you?
I’m lucky, my son is doing most of the cooking, and we cheated and bought cheesecake…there is a local cheesecake shop that has amazing cheesecake, they ship all over the country! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Dorothy!
Same to you!!!
Jenna, these look and sound yummy! Happy Tuesday!
Hi Jenna, oh wow the sweet potato rounds look and sound so good. Have a happy Thanksgiving!
I’m still trying to decide whether to have the usual sweet potato casserole or try something new. I like the casserole but it adds another sweet which we don’t need. Maybe this is an answer. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
These sound delicious! I’m saving this so I can try them. I might eat them all by myself since my husband isn’t a fan of sweet potatoes. 😀
Happy Thanksgiving Michelle!
Looks like a fun way to serve sweet potatoes! Happy Thanksgiving Jenna:@)
What a great way to serve sweet potatoes! We eat a lot of them now that I discovered roasting them. I add a little Chinese Five Spice seasoning to mine and it gives them a touch of sweetness. 💗 Thanks for the recipe Jenna! 😊
So easy, so good, thanks Jill!
Delicious Jenna! Happy Thanksgiving, I bet you’re cooking up a storm! 🙂
