Notes
Ingredient Substitutions
Sweet potatoes: I recommend using yams, sweet potatoes, Japanese sweet potatoes or purple sweet potatoes! If none of those are your thing, you could really use any variety of potato, however you will need to bake any white/red/gold potato for slightly longer than sweet varieties, You can also omit the potatoes and just use a variety of other vegetables.
Peppers/Broccoli: The sky's the limit with the kind of vegetables that can be used in this recipe! Asparagus, edamame, carrots, zucchini, cauliflower, etc. etc. etc. Just try to use the same amount listed in this recipe/
Olive oil. Any neutral oil can be used! Olive and avocado oils are my favorite! Use a flavored olive oil for extra flavor/
Garlic salt. This is a pantry staple for us. But if that's not the case for you, simply substitute 1 tsp salt and 1/2-1 tsp garlic powder.
Serve warm as a side dish or over a salad. I like to make a big batch of these veggies in the beginning of the week and reheat them for lunch all week long.Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. When it's time to reheat them, I prefer to broil them for 2-3 minutes in the oven because it restores some of their crispiness. However I have eaten them warmed in the microwave and even cold.
