Sweet Potato Sunday

This past weekend it was FINALLY cold!! By cold I mean 40-45°. Not to worry it was back in the 70's on Sunday and expected to be in the 80's this coming week. Gotta love the South! With the weather being cold for a brief second, my mind went straight to sweet potatoes!! What is more fall than a sweet potato? I love sweet potatoes but my husband won't touch them with a 10 foot pole. To solve this issue and craving, I created a recipe for one. Of course this can be doubled, tripled, quadrupled, or whatever your need may be. 

I was lucky because my hubs was grilling a pork tenderloin for dinner, so I just added a little work to his load. Now if you don't have a grill or don't feel like grilling, you can absolutely use an indoor grill pan or even a panini press! Okay onto my delicious side dish!

Fall Grilled Sweet Potatoes

Gluten Free, Dairy Free

Ingredients

1 sweet potato

1/4 t paprika

1/4 t salt

1/4 t cumin

1/8 t ground cinnamon

1/8 t chipotle chili powder 

1/2 T apple cider vinegar

1/8 cup olive oil 

Start with getting your potato ready for the grill. Thoroughly wash your potato.

Cover your potato with cold salted water.

Bring the water to a boil and boil for about 7 minutes or until slightly tender.

Remove from the water and let cool completely.

While your potato is cooling, you can get your sauce ready. Mix all your spices and apple cider vinegar together until combined.

Slowly add in your olive oil, stirring constantly.

Once your potato has completely cooled, slice into 4 slices lengthwise.

Brush the top of your slices with your spice mixture.

Place seasoned side down on the grill and over medium heat. Once on the grill, brush the top side with your spice mixture. Grill for about 7 minutes.

Flip the potatoes and cook for another 6-7 minutes or until the potatoes are completely cooked.

Dig in! Happy Fall Y'all! 

Thanks!
