Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds (about 3 large) sweet potatoes diced into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 4 Tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 (14.5 ounces) can black beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup frozen corn thawed
  • 1 Tablespoon honey
  • 3 Tablespoons lime juice

Instructions

  • Wash hands with soap and water for 20 seconds.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Scrub the sweet potatoes with a clean vegetable brush under cold running water. Peel and cube the potatoes.
  • Place sweet potatoes on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 3 Tablespoons olive oil, sprinkle with cumin and toss to evenly coat.
