Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Apples

With cooler weather on the horizon, I am totally craving sweet potatoes and everything that comes with fall.  I really love adding cinnamon to my roasted sweet potatoes and I decided why not add some apples too.  This combo is pretty fantastic and is a great side for any meal.  In fact, I’m thinking it would be a great addition to our Thanksgiving dinner!  Too early to be thinking about Thanksgiving dinner ideas? I mean there is already Christmas stuff at Costco.  Anyone else already thinking about what’s going on the Thanksgiving menu this year?

Anyways, I love simple recipes and this one is pretty simple. I hope you give it a try.  If you do, let me know what you think.
