Tip: 1.If you want large portions of your side dish, this recipe will be for 2 people. For a dinner with multiple side dishes, like for example a holiday meal, the recipe will work for 4 people. 2. If you are roasting meat in the oven at the same time, place the meat on the lowest rack and the sweet potatoes and brussels sprouts on the highest. Add the veggies in when the meat still has 40 minutes of cooking time left.
