Roasted Sweet Potato & White Beans

This is my new Fall favorite to keep on-hand at all times— it works perfectly as a base in Meal Building. Nothing like some cozy potatoes & beans to warm up a brisk evening.

This combination of rustic Sweet Potatoes and hearty White Beans make an excellent addition to Rice Bowls and beautifully bulk up a salad (like this one!). If you’ve got some saved away for quick meals, just heat em up in the microwave for a few minutes and toss em in whatever you’re making!

This recipe also makes a great stand-alone side dish and is easy to double up if you wanna impressing some pals at a potluck. Drizzle with Sweet & Smokey Tahini Dressing and bask in the glory.
