4-6 servings
Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, cubed, about 2 1/2 cups
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1/2 pineapple, cored and diced (smaller than in the photo), about 1 1/2 cups
- cilantro to garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400ºF (205ºC).
- Toss sweet potato with half of the vegetable oil, then spread onto a lined baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes then give the sweet potato a flip.
