ROASTED SPIRALIZED SWEET POTATOES WITH WALNUTS AND FETA/VEGETABLES REIMAGINED

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Peel the sweet potatoes and trim both ends of each sweet potato to square them off.
2. Using a spiralizer, cut the sweet potatoes into ⅛-inch-thick noodles.
3. Cut the potato noodles into 12-inch lengths.
4. Gently toss the potato noodles, olive oil, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.
5. Spread the noodles on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until tender, 12 to 14 minutes, stirring once halfway through roasting.
6. Season the sweet potatoes with salt and pepper to taste, and transfer them to a serving platter.
7. Sprinkle the walnuts, feta, and parsley over the top of the sweet potatoes.
8. Drizzle with extra olive oil to taste.
9. Serve and enjoy

NOTE:

• Spiralizing offers a fun and easy way to fill your plate with the bounty of vegetables, and sweet potatoes are a heartier choice than most of the usual suspects.
• Though spiralized vegetable noodles are often served steamed, sautéed, or raw, roasting them caramelizes them slightly, concentrating and enhancing their flavor.
• The rich, slightly bitter walnuts and creamy- tangy feta provide the perfect counterpoint to the natural sweetness of the potatoes.
