Cajun Sweet Potato Bites

Here I present my recipe for Cajun Sweet Potato Bites, smokey, spicy Cajun seasoning coated on sweet potatoes which are then roasted to perfection – perfect with salads, wraps and more!

This is a recipe I’ve been mulling over for a while now.   It’s no secret I like healthy eating.  As a result, I’m trying to eat less meat.  Part of the substitutions I’ve been using in this quest is mushrooms.  I love having equal parts grilled mushrooms and chicken with my dinner but because of this, Mike is over mushrooms 🤷‍♀️

Then I had one solitary sweet potato left so I made this dish.

How do I count the ways I love this?

I added these to my salads at work with less chicken.  It was a flavour bomb 💣

It was a texture bomb.

It was glorious.

This recipe has inspired me.  Next I’m going to try veggie tacos using these bites.  I’m thinking Cajun Sweet Potato Bites, red onion, peppers, corn and avocado or guacamole 🥑

Omg!!!

I can’t wait 😝
