You know when you’re out for your groceries and you tend to pick up a few items just randomly.Well I did just that .In fact I do just that all the time.
You do too?
That makes me feel so much better.
And imagine your excitement, when you incorporate all those items in your dish and it turns out to be a success!
Well, I had my AHA moment over the weekend in my kitchen trying to use three ingredients that I bought,namely some Sweet Potatoes,Kale and Goat’s Cheese.
I’d initially planned on making some Sweet Potato fries,but then,I also had to use the other two ingredients in some way.I found the perfect solution in the way of these bites, where in I could incorporate all three and besides,who could resist such a healthy starter?
I peeled up my Sweet Potatoes and sliced them at an angle.That’s probably the only tricky part in this recipe and if you’re not very comfortable using your knife just slice it normally in rounds or long slices.Once they’re sliced all you do is coat them with the spices and bake them in the oven.
Its that easy.
The Kale is then sautéed along with some garlic and olive oil and makes the perfect topping for these bites.A layer of Goat’s cheese goes next and I’ve used Chevre with Honey that gives a perfect sweet balance to the dish.The Cumin and Cayenne add that spicy heat element to my Sweet Potatoes that I love.The Kale is a nice contrast texture, color and flavor-wise and also makes this appetizer super healthy.Its bursting with flavor and I couldn’t stop eating them once they were ready!So so good!You have to try it to believe.

These sound delicious but my fussy fiances refuses to eat goat cheese. Do you have any recommendations for what other cheese to use? Feta?
Thankyou!I think any crumbly cheese with a hint of honey would work instead of Goats Cheese.You could try Feta or Queso Fresco but they won’t taste exactly like Chevre with Honey…Thanks!
These sweet potato bites look amazing! We are definitely going to try this recipe
I do the same thing, grab a few things here and few things there at the grocery store. What a creative idea for a recipe! This recipe would be fun at a party, perfect appetizer:-) Hugs, Terra
