Maple Orange Sweet Potatoes

I love these little tubers and they are so versatile I usually roast a batch of sweet potatoes or yams once a week to keep in the fridge. I toss them into a lot of my recipes as they are loaded with Vitamin A and antioxidants. They are a good source of carbs and tastes good in everything. They are great cold in the lunch box with a little dipping sauce of greek yogurt and lemon rind. This recipe is super easy and if you need it fast, just steam the Sweet Potatoes before popping them in the oven. Maple Orange Sweet Potatoes are my healthy go to recipe for Thanksgiving and Christmas (no nasty mini marshmallows needed). These are great with a sprinkle of Cinnamon or Nutmeg before baking for a sweet taste. Dried Tarragon is really good on them and so is Hot or Smoked Paprika for savory or southwest dishes or Fresh Thyme.  Leftovers are wonderful to add to tacos, enchiladas or salads or try them in Carrot, Sweet Potato and Coriander Soup.
