CRANBERRY-GLAZED ROASTED SWEET POTATOES
This will work for either sweet potatoes or carrots, I use both sweet potatoes and carrots for this, make certain to chop your carrots into about 1-1/2 inch pieces. This is a great dish, and one that goes great with a turkey or roasted chicken dinner. If you like a lot of sauce or you are using more sweet potatoes then then double the sauce ingredients, adjust the amount of sugar, if you prefer a sweeter sauce then add in more sugar, you can use brown sugar in place of white if desired

Tips:

- Pierce the sweet potatoes before baking: This helps them cook more evenly and prevents them from bursting.
- Bake the sweet potatoes until they are tender: You can check this by inserting a fork or skewer into the center of a potato. If it goes in easily, the potato is done.
- Let the sweet potatoes cool slightly before handling: This will help prevent them from breaking apart.
- Make the cranberry-orange sauce while the sweet potatoes are baking: This will save you time and ensure that the sauce is hot when you serve the potatoes.
- Serve the sweet potatoes with the cranberry-orange sauce immediately: This dish is best enjoyed hot.
