Baked sweet potatoes recipes
Typically the baked sweet potato recipes are savory recipes with lime. However, in this recipe, I have used honey to make this recipe both, sweet and savory. The inclusion of honey makes the salad healthier. Health benefits of honey are detailed in Honey glazed almonds recipe.
Honey is a daily consumable item in my home. Whether it is starting my day with honey lime water or using it in recipes, I am a dire fan of honey. Honey buttermilk bread and Chocolate chip cookies are extremely popular in my audience.
In this oven-baked sweet potatoes I have used a special Italian spice. This spice is called Genoa 7 in One Multi-purpose Spice Blend by Sprig. This spice is a blend of 7 different spices (oregano, thyme, garlic, chilli, onion, cumin, coriander). You can use this spice in dressing for any salad, to marinate, to grill anything, to sprinkle or to make a paste.
