Ingredients:
  • 3 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2" square pieces

Directions:

1. Peel and cut sweet potatoes into pieces. Slice onion. Put potatoes, onion and spinach in a bowl. Toss.
2. Mix the olive oil and all the spices. Pour over the sweet potato mixture. Toss to coat.

4. Grill for 20-30 mins. Flip it a couple of times.

Comments:

I had made sweet potato fries in the oven using the spice mixture before, but the rest was my own creation. I wasn't sure how the spinach would be with the rest, but it was DELICIOUS. My parents were skeptical, but they gobbled it up.
