Roasted Sweet Potatoes

The best roasted sweet potatoes are seasoned with salt and garlic powder, then baked in a hot oven until caramelized. Perfection! All hail the sweet potato! This tender orange vegetable is super versatile, baked into crispy fries, with Mexican toppings, or as part of a Moroccan stew.
