Roasted Sweet Potato bites with cranberries and Ricotta Cheese



This appetizer is perfect to get a little taste of everything Thanksgiving.

Ingredients:
One large sweet potato peeled and sliced into thin wedges.

Ricotta mixture:
1/2 small container of ricotta cheese
1/4 cup honey
1/4/ tsp of nutmeg

Cranberry sauce:
1/2 small bag of cranberries
1/2 cup of sugar
1/4 cup of fresh squeezed orange juice.
(cook in saucepan on medium heat until thick and cranberries burst open. Cool completley)

Topping:
orange zest
chopped walnuts
drizzle of honey

Place peeled and sliced sweet potatos on a cookie sheet and roast at 500 degrees until soft and edges are browned and center starts to bubble up and brown/black.  Turn over and roast the other side. This took me about 20 min. It will depend on your oven and how thin you slice you potato.
Cool completly then top with ricotta mixture, and cooled cranberry sauce. Top with zest, nuts and honey.
