Cheesy Sweet Potato Stacks

Sometimes you need a quick side dish to go with whatever entree you're cooking up.

Something tasty, yet simple.

Something interesting, but not too complicated.

Something familiar, but not boring.

These cheesy sweet potato stacks check all the boxes!

This recipe is similar to my Crispy Sweet Potato Fries recipe, but this comes together a lot quicker. I definitely like making the sweet potato fries, too, but it depends on what else I'm making and how much time I've got! Each recipe definitely has its advantages!

As you'll see in the recipe below, I use a muffin tin to roast these sweet potato disks. I tried roasting them stacked freely on a baking sheet, but they all fell over and became sweet potato heaps! A muffin tin will help keep these guy contained and still looking like the stacks you started out with!

I like serving these sweet potato stacks alongside a grilled steak or roast chicken. They also go great with chicken strips or my Shake N Bake Chicken. You can even serve them up as appetizers for a party! How will you serve them up in your home?

• Adjust seasonings as desired, according to taste.
