This is some good! Also it has no sugar and no marshmallows, and that's a recommendation for me right there. Why on earth did we load sugar and marshmallows onto a vegetable that is already sweet? I'll bet sweet potatoes would like to be divorced from marshmallows, or at least legally separated. I will make this often.

This is a great recipe....will make it often. I prepared it exactly as called for, except to halve it. Thanks Tracy!

The flavor of this dish is just wonderful. I followed it as written, adding only a bit of chipotle powder to the list of spices; I also put all the spices in with the olive oil, mixed well, and then poured over the potatoes/onions in a bowl to toss. The spices truly complement sweet potatoes and make this dish something special. I will be volunteering to make this at Thanksgiving this year - I think it would be stellar instead of the usual sweet potato casserole on a Thanksgiving table. Thanks much for sharing this, TracyK!

Loved the spicy sweetness of these potatoes. I used fresh thyme and omitted the red pepper flakes, as I thought the cayenne would be enough for a first round with the family. I'll add the flakes when it's just me and dh. Thanks for a keeper, Tracy.

These were so-o-o good! I used Old Bay Seasoning and black pepper and then followed the recipe. The onions really added a nice addition to the sweet potatoes. Thanks, Carole in Orlando

This was a nice mixture of sweet and spicy. I loved how the sweet hit your taste buds first followed by a long heat. I made the recipe as written and it wasn't quite on the money for my taste, but it is an excellent foundation to play with the herb and spice mixture; as stated up front in the description of the recipe. I will definitely use this recipe again and start playing with all the possibilities. Thanks for a great suggestion.

These were very good. I loved the addition of the onion, but was less enthusiastic about the rosemary. I love the contrast of the spices and the sweetness of the potatoes.

Very nice way to treat sweet potatoes. I used fresh rosemary because it is a favorite of mine. The aroma was quite pungent and the flavor divine. The onions blended well and there was a very slight afterburn that did not linger but made this interesting. Thanks for sharing a great recipe.

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this yet...we love these potatoes! I also like to sprinkle a little splenda brown sugar over the sweet potatoes... YUMMY! These are a favorite at our house.
