Smashed Sweet Potatoes
This is my new favorite side dish (and snack). Smashed Sweet Potatoes. Sweet potatoes cut into thick rounds, tossed with a mixture of butter, garlic and thyme and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg, baked until fork tender, and smashed and broiled until golden and crispy. These rounds are finished off with sprinkles of grated parmesan on top. Loaded with flavors and pretty cute, these rounds get my kids and I hooked. Yummy!
