Speaking of reek...does anyone else's house still smell like turkey? :shock:

If you can't bear the thoughts of yet another marshmallow-encrusted sweet potato, here is a spicy alternative:

Cuban-Style Roasted Sweet Potatoes

3 large sweet potatoes, peeled and quartered (about 3 pounds)
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 teaspoon finely minced garlic (1 large clove)
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
1 1/2 tablespoons roughly chopped parsley

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Line baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.

Place the sweet potatoes in a medium bowl, toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet, and roast until the potatoes can be pierced easily with a knife but still offer some resistance, about 30 minutes. Let the potatoes cool for about 15 minutes.

Transfer potatoes to a large bowl. Toss with the garlic, lime juice, chopped parsley and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and adjust the seasonings to taste. Serve warm or at room temperature.

ooohhh, love this recipe, and must try it over the holiday. reminds me of one we have done more than a few times, from Southern Living, roasted sweet potato chunks (cut about 2"x1") with olive oil, rosemary, pine nuts, sea salt and freshly ground pepper. yummy yummy yummy! the sweet in the potatoes goes so well with other spices and herbs.
