Product: Alexia Foods Chipotle Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Vegetables – $3.29+
Sweet potatoes are one of my favorite foods to eat. I’ll eat them baked, served up as fries, made into (amazing) tater tots, and so on. So, when I spotted another great potato and vegetable side from Alexia Foods, I couldn’t help put grab it from the freezer section at my grocery store so that I could give it a try.
Alexia Foods has a wide variety of these sides that include vegetables and potatoes that are easily sauteed up in some herb-infused olive oil. The Chipotle Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Vegetables, however, is my new favorite! I swear on every sweet potato on this Earth that this one takes the sweet potato cake!
First of all, it’s a synch to make. Heat a pan. Thaw the oil packet hot water. Add oil to hot pan. Then pour the contents of the bag into the pan and sauté for about 10-12 minutes. Serve. Enjoy.
The oil in this particular variety is chipotle-infused, adding a spicy kick to the meal. The sweet potatoes are paired with sweet corn, black beans, red bell pepper, and onions, bringing layers of flavor to the dish. You get the sweetness from the potatoes, corn, and peppers, and a bit of heat from the onions and black beans. But it’s the magic of the chipotle-infused olive oil that everything is cooked in that really brings this dish to life. Seriously. It is the right level of heat, so that it’s not too much or lacking in any way. Perfect seasoning throughout. The variety of vegetables that are included in this pack provide different textures and flavors on their own, so when they are brought together, it’s magic.
Alexia Foods does potatoes right. And this is a great gluten-free product that can either act as a meal or be served as a side. It’s up to you as to how much you wish to enjoy and keep for yourself. For me…it’s a meal. But I wouldn’t bat an eyelash at preparing it as a side dish if I were to have company over. It’s another product done to perfection by Alexia Foods.
Spice can be nice. It can be sweet too. And this gives you the best of both worlds.

I’m so bummed I can not find this product anymore. It was my favorite and absolutely delicious. Every time I made it my guests loved it? I’ve tried recreate it on my own but am struggling. Does anyone have a comparable recipe?
