1-Preheat and Prep: Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Wash and cut 2 pounds of sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes, then place them in a large bowl. For added flavor, this is where you add the herbs and seasonings.

2-Season and Toss: Drizzle the chopped sweet potatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add 2-3 cloves garlic, pressed or minced, ¼ teaspoon Italian seasoning, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper. Toss everything together until the cubes are evenly coated, which helps the flavors meld during roasting.

3-Roast and Serve: Spread the sweet potatoes evenly in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 35-40 minutes until tender and golden brown, stirring halfway through baking to ensure even cooking. For extra crispiness, broil on high for 2-3 minutes at the end while keeping a close eye to avoid burning. Serve immediately with optional fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese on top.
