Balsamic Sweet Potato Wedges

I think Leela is preparing for winter because she has had quite the appetite lately begging as much as Miko and even running over to Miko’s dinner bowl to eat the rest of his V-Dog when he steps away.

So innocent. She is the master of weight control, she’s always the exact same weight for her annual checkups – 8.4 lbs. If she could only share her secret!

Hubby shared this wonderful vegan chili with me he made to celebrate the cooling temps.

And I complemented it with super simple oil free baked sweet potato wedges seasoned with tangy balsamic vinegar and fresh rosemary from our garden. You’re gonna love the simple ingredient list!

  • 4 tbsp. minced fresh rosemary

Served with a blend of organic ketchup and sriracha for dipping, these were a fun addition to the chili.

The wedges are hearty with a warming savory and tangy rosemary flavor and they smell divine.

They’re healthy, filling, fun to eat, and the simple ingredient list means they can be shared with hungry chihuahuas.

  1. I confess, I just recently discovered how delicious sweet potatoes are with fresh rosemary! I absolutely love both. And I have some sweet potatoes that need using. In my past life, I would have drowned these in oil in the oven to make luscious fries. But I’m going with the vinegar! I’ll let you know how it goes.
