Nutrition
Servings 12 servings
Ingredients
- 12 slices California Sweet potato 1/4" thick
- 2 ounces blue cheese
- 3 Orchard Choice or Sun-Maid California Figs stemmed and quartered
- 12 sprigs rosemary
- 1 tsp sea salt flaked
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1 tbsp honey
Instructions
- Cook the sweet potato slices in your toaster oven as you would small slices of bread, using the most well-done setting, until tender (you might have to do this in batches, and each batch might have to cook two times). Set aside to cool to room temperature.
- Top each sweet potato slice with 1 teaspoon of blue cheese, 1 fig quarter, and a rosemary sprig, arranging them on plates or a platter. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper, then drizzle with the honey and serve.
- Note: If you don't have a toaster oven, use 3 or 4 lengthwise slices of sweet potato and cook them in your toaster using the most well-done setting (you might have to do this two times). Then cut each toasted slice into 3 or 4 pieces to make 12 smaller toasts.
