Ingredients
  

2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes

1/4 cup olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and black pepper to taste

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Optional: 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze for drizzling

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare Sweet Potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Toss until all the sweet potatoes are evenly coated.

      Add Parmesan: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the sweet potatoes, tossing again to ensure the cheese sticks to every piece.

        Spread on Baking Sheet: Spread the potato cubes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there's enough space between each piece for optimal crispiness.

          Roast: Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the edges.

            Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and drizzle with balsamic glaze if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
