Savory Sweet Potato Casserole

Ingredients

• 4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch rounds

• 1 tablespoon TAO Extra Virgin Olive Oil

• 1 tablespoon TAO Balsamic Vinegar

• 1 large onion, chopped

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

• 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary

• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

• Salt and black pepper to taste

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.

2. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato rounds with the olive oil and balsamic vinegar until they are evenly coated.

3. In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion until it is soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

4. Add the minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, and smoked paprika to the skillet and cook for another minute, stirring frequently.

5. Arrange half of the sweet potato rounds in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread half of the onion and herb mixture over the sweet potatoes, and sprinkle with half of the Parmesan cheese and parsley. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

6. Repeat with the remaining sweet potato rounds and onion mixture, and top with the remaining Parmesan cheese and parsley.

7. Cover the casserole with foil and bake for 30 minutes.

8. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and the top is golden and crispy.

9. Serve the savory sweet potato casserole hot, garnished with additional fresh parsley, if desired.
