Quick and Easy Sweet Potatoes

A little microwave magic and you will have a speedy and delicious snack, side dish, salad or main dish topper. Great for the holidays.

Ingredients

• 1 Sweet Potato

• 1-2 tablespoons The Olive Scene Orange Olive Oil

• 1 tablespoon The Olive Scene Cranberry Pear Balsamic Vinegar

• ¼ teaspoon sea salt

• ¼ teaspoon ground pepper, to taste

Instructions

1. Whisk together the oil, vinegar, salt and pepper and set aside.

2. Wash sweet potato thoroughly, pat dry, and pierce 3-4 times with a fork. Place potato on microwave-safe plate and microwave 5 minutes, turning halfway through. If your potato isn’t fork tender after 5 minutes, continue microwaving in 30 second increments.

3. Split potato down the middle, drizzle each half with the oil and vinegar mixture, and enjoy.

Enjoy as a side dish, a snack, or chop up the cooked and cooled sweet potato and add to a salad or main dish. We love it topping spicy dishes!
