Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400ðF (200ðC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Peel the sweet potato and cut it into uniform 1/2-inch cubes.
  3. Toss the sweet potato cubes with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Roast the sweet potatoes for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and lightly caramelized.
  5. While potatoes roast, trim the ends off the haricots verts (green beans).
  6. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and blanch the haricots verts for 3-4 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender.
  7. Immediately transfer the beans to an ice bath to stop the cooking process, then drain and pat dry.
  8. Slice the mushrooms and sauté them in a skillet with a little olive oil, garlic, and thyme until browned and softened.
  9. In a large serving bowl, combine the warm roasted sweet potatoes, sautéed mushrooms, and blanched haricots verts.
  10. Drizzle with a simple vinaigrette of olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper, then toss gently to combine.
  11. Serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
