Hasselback Sweet Potatoes
I love my sweet potatoes. I love that they are a powerful superfood, inexpensive, and VERY versatile. Plus they tastes like heaven my mouth :D. I did a little searing though the FFF archives and pulled together 6 of my favorite. Plus- if you scroll all the way to the bottom, you’ll find my new favorite way to roast them- hasselback style!

The reason Hasselback-style is my new favorite is because the way you prepare it allows the flavors to seep into the entire potato, making it extremely flavorful. I also think it jazzes up your potato. If you are making these for a dinner party or trying to impress someone (wink), it’s an great way to make the presentation look gawgeous.
For this recipe, I used extremely basic flavors: olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. You don’t really need anything else!
Easy? It really is.
For toppings I used a dollop of plain Greek Yogurt, blue cheese, and some homemade applewood smoked bacon bits. And a side of avocado for the win!
Ohhhhhhh yeah.
