Roasted Sweet Potatoes & Onions

Recipe by USA WEEKEND columnist Jean Carper 

"This delicious side dish is packed with nutrition. Sweet potatoes, onions and almonds are powerhouses of antioxidants and other nutrients -- in fact, almonds are among the most nutrient-dense foods, containing high concentrations of vitamins and minerals per calorie. Plus, olive oil and almonds contain monounsaturated fat -- the good type."

Ingredients:

  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut in 1-inch chunks

  • 2 medium Vidalia or other sweet onions, cut in 1-inch chunks

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1/4 cup amaretto liqueur


Directions:
  1. Heat oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. Toss first 6 ingredients in a shallow medium-sized baking dish.
  3. Cover; bake 30 minutes. Uncover; bake 20 minutes more. Sprinkle with almonds
