What Are Smashed Sweet Potatoes?
Smashed sweet potatoes use a similar cooking method assmashed potatoes,smashed beets,smashed carrotsand evensmashed radishes. With this method, vegetables are first parcooked, then smashed and roasted or broiled until crispy. For this recipe, the sweet potato rounds are baked until tender, then broiled until browned. All of this is done on one large rimmed baking sheet, making cleanup a breeze.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
