These buttery, crispy sweet potatoes were easy to make, and would be a great addition to a hearty winter holiday meal!  This recipe uses only 6 simple ingredients but is still super flavourful and aromatic from the shallots and the rosemary.  Sweet potatoes are a great source of fiber, beta-carotene, vitamin C.

This dish is made with a delicious nutrient-dense root vegetable that has a variety of health benefits. This dish is also very versatile and is great for complimenting a holiday feast or any regular weekday meal.
