Maybe it’s the New Yorker in me, but if there’s an opportunity to put maple on something, I’m going to take it. 🍁

I made these maple cinnamon roasted sweet potatoes to go with rosemary garlic steak and broccoli, and the little bit of sweetness was so good with everything else on the plate. They’re crispy around the edges, soft in the middle and simple enough to make with a regular weeknight dinner.

The full recipe is up on The Virgo Kitchen. Save this for later and find the recipe at the link in my bio. 🍠

... Read moreMaple cinnamon roasted sweet potatoes are a fantastic way to elevate a simple dinner and introduce a touch of natural sweetness that complements savory dishes beautifully. In my experience, adding maple syrup to sweet potatoes not only enhances their flavor but also helps create a caramelized, crispy texture that contrasts with their tender interior. To replicate this at home, I suggest tossing cubed sweet potatoes in olive oil, ground cinnamon, and real pure maple syrup before roasting them at a high temperature (about 425°F) for roughly 25-30 minutes. For an extra layer of flavor, sprinkling a pinch of sea salt midway through cooking can heighten the sweetness and balance the taste. Additionally, pairing these roasted sweet potatoes with herbs like rosemary and garlic, as done with the steak in the original recipe, brings out a comforting, well-rounded profile perfect for family dinners or meal prep. These potatoes are versatile—they work well as a side for chicken, pork, or even a hearty vegetarian bowl. What I love most about maple cinnamon roasted sweet potatoes is how accessible this recipe is. It doesn’t require fancy ingredients or complicated steps, making it ideal for busy weeknights. Plus, the leftovers reheat beautifully and can be added to salads or grain bowls the next day. Whether you are a sweet potato fan or just looking for an easy, flavorful side dish, this recipe is a wonderful addition to your kitchen repertoire.

Maybe in Another Life ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This was another solid book by TJR. It has the feel of a choose your own adventure concept. It is thought provoking. How could our life be if we had made different decisions? Spoiler alert!!! She loves cinnamon rolls and they do mention it far too many times, but to me, that’s easy to over look.

Have you seen the New Butter Glosses
I’ve been wearing NYX butter gloss since forever😅 I prefer the original Buttergloss over the new glittery version. I’m not sure if I like glitter lips. Maybe I should try it before I knock it. Have you tried them ? #unfiltered #embracevulnerability #makeupinspo #beautyhaul #

I think I rated this book 3.5/5 ⭐️. I enjoyed this mainly because it gave me that nostalgic feeling like I was watching a classic 90’s or early 2000’s movie. It was a little corny at some parts but I appreciated the beautiful story the author told. #bookwormsoflemon8 #bookshelf #BookReview
