Cajun Sweet Potatoes!

Here is a side dish, you can pair it with just about any main course or even makes a great snack on it's own. It is quite versatile. I know quite a few people do not like sweet potatoes/yams but I would be curious to see how these stack up in their opinion! Definitely not your normal sweet potato.

These taste great, and are pretty simple. So let's get started!

What you will need:

2-3 Large Sweet Potatoes
1/4 Tsp Black Pepper
1/4 Tsp Cinnamon
1/4 Tsp Dried Thyme
1/4 Tsp Dried Rosemary
1/2 Tsp Garlic Powder
1/4 Tsp Paprika
1/8 Tsp Cayenne Pepper
2 Tbs Olive Oil

Directions:
1.Preheat oven to 375 Degrees F
2. Wash sweet potatoes, cut in half then lengthwise.
3. Brush sweet potatoes with olive oil until lightly coated.
3. On plate mix all spices.
4. Press cut end's into spice and rub in so the open ends are thoroughly coated.
5. Place skin side down on baking sheet.
6. Bake until tender or about 1 hour.

 Alright, so as you can see the spices don't need to be mixed perfect. Just spread it out on the potato afterwards to make sure the coating is even.

I started checking them at about 45min just to be safe, though it really doesn't hurt if they are over done. As long as they are not burnt!
