# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The herb drizzle cuts through the richness and makes everything taste bright and alive
  • These look impressive but come together faster than you can order takeout
02 -
  • Work quickly once the sweet potatoes come out of the oven, serving them warm makes such a difference in how the feta softens
  • The herb drizzle can sit at room temperature for about an hour but the fresh herbs will start to lose their brightness after that
03 -
  • Use a mandoline if you have one to get perfectly even sweet potato rounds
  • Warm your honey slightly in the microwave for 10 seconds if it is too thick to drizzle nicely
