Can I make these sweet potato wedges ahead of time?

Absolutely! You can slice and season the sweet potatoes a few hours in advance and store them in an airtight container. When you’re ready to bake them, just toss them directly into the oven. Alternatively, you can pre-bake them and then reheat them when it's mealtime.

Are there any substitutes for Parmesan cheese?

Yes, if you are looking for a dairy-free option, you can use nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor or a vegan Parmesan substitute available in stores. Additionally, look for nut-based cheeses if you're avoiding dairy.

What sauces pair best with sweet potato wedges?

Sweet potato wedges are versatile and can be paired with a variety of dipping sauces, including ketchup, guacamole, garlic aioli, or ranch dressing. Feel free to experiment based on your taste preferences!

How do I store leftover sweet potato wedges?

Store cooled leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. They can be reheated in an oven or toaster oven to get them crispy again, avoiding microwave heating.

Can I modify this recipe to add more vegetables?

Definitely! You can add other root vegetables like carrots, parsnips, or even Brussels sprouts to the mix. Just be mindful of the cooking time, as different vegetables may need slight adjustments.
