Makes: 6 to 8 skewers 
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Baking Time: 35 - 40 minutes
Total Time: 40 - 45 minutes

 

Ingredients - Skewers

2 large sweet potatoes scrubbed but skins kept on, cut into thin slices

1 handful of sun-dried SOAKED tomatoes (the kind in the oil)

1 red onion peeled chopped bite-sized

1 red bell pepper chopped bite-sized

1 green bell pepper chopped bite-sized

Ingredients - Marinade

1/4 cup (56g) olive oil

4 cloves garlic minced

Juice 1/2 lemon

Salt + Pepper to taste

1 big spoonful tahini (Fit Foodie Optional)     

Equipment & Extras

Baking Tray

Skewers soaked in water for at least 15 minutes before put in oven

Marinade Brush (optional extra)

   

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 180C Fan/400F. Prepare marinade by mixing all ingredients in a bowl. Add salt and pepper last so you can taste to the level you want.
   
   
2. Make sure that all veggies are more or less the same size. This is particularly important for the sweet potatoes - they need to be thin in order to cook well.
   
   
3. Once all veggies are ready, slip them them on to your soaked skewers. Be sure to leave some space between them and ideally keep your onions on either end (this will help with cooking + keeping everything on the stick.)
   
   
4. Place veggie skewers on baking tray and brush the marinade over all sides of each skewer (or use your hands and drizzle, lightly spreading with fingertips.)
   
   
5. Put skewers in oven and set timer for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, check on them, rotate and set timer for another 10 to 15 minutes depending on how cooked you want the veggies to be. Remove when done and aproveite this taste of sun!
