Oven Roasted Sweet Potato Wedges

This recipe for Oven Roasted Sweet Potato Wedges has only five ingredients and makes a wonderful side dish to many meals.  Sweet potatoes are incredibly nutritious and are packed with anti-oxidants, vitamins and minerals.

During a recent grocery store visit, I noticed in the prepared food section, sweet potato wedges very similar to these for $6.99 per pound!  Make your own and they will cost less and taste just as good or better.  I buy organic sweet potatoes and they are usually $1.99 – $2.49 per pound.

It only takes a few minutes prep for these sweet potato wedges.  They don’t get crispy and crunchy; the texture is very soft, like “buttah”.  Delish!
