Lately I’ve been posting a lot of Healthy Bowl recipes on my blog. Now, even though those are phenomenal and I know you all enjoy those very much, I think it is time that I take a little break from them and post a savory recipe for you.
This recipe I am about to share today is an amazing side dish that I have been eating lots of this last week. It is so flavorful, so satisfying, and so good for you. It has ingredients that will provide you with wonderful nutrients to keep you healthy, and enough colors to keep your meals looking exciting and fun.
I love to eat this side dish along with a protein; it goes extremely well with chicken, steak and any type of burger (I made some veggie burgers, and let me tell you, the combination of these two foods was amazing).
This Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Brussel Sprouts with Feta and Beets recipe is easy to make and it stays fresh for about 3 days, that way you can save whatever you don’t eat and take along with you to work or class the next day, or the day after that.
Left overs are a life saver in my home; one never knows when hunger strikes, and having delicious and healthy foods readily available can make life a breeze (saves us from going hangry, if you know what I mean.) Happy roasting.

Do you peel the sweet potatoes before cubing and roasting?
Hi Helen! I didn’t for this particular recipe (I did wash them really well though). But, yes, I normally do peel them before roasting! 🙂
