Sweet potatoes go with lots of things and artichokes are one of them. If you have not tried this combination yet then please do and you will love it, I guarantee. This was just too delicious and the presentation can be also very impressive, especially if you are expecting guests. Although, even if you are just making quick dinner for your loved ones, that is perfectly fine too. This is a very easy, highly nutritious and satisfying meal for any occasion.

Ohhh! I like the sweet potatoes! Itβs incredible dish, and the artichokes also made me salivate, I missed the fresh one, here have just the frozen one, I like it in salad with vinegar dressing.

I have no doubt this is a meal you would really enjoy. I don't know how in Italy, but in Canada sweet potato is very cost effective and they are available everywhere.

I believe I saw them the other day in the store. I just did not buy them. Now I have all the reason to buy them from reading your amazing recipe. :)

That's awesome Durko, I have tons of recipes with sweet potatoes on my blog. If you need me to pick some more for you just let me know. I am sure eventually you will come up with your own............. once you realize how versatile and yummy they are ππ

Well, what can I say you know me better than anyone. I will probably do my cooking "experiments" with them. lol
Eventually, I will make a good recipe on my own. lol

It's interesting Durko that we never met, but we know each other so well, lol. I look forward to see your sweet potato creation soon, I hope π πππΏπππ

Well, I believe it has to do with a fact we are both direct and speak our minds. Even though it is over the internet. Plus we do know each other for more than 2 years I believe. Since TSU, after, and now on Steemit again. :)
I believe some people understand each other without knowing each for a long time. :)
I sure will think of something for sweet potatoes. My creative mind will not let me eat them plain. lol

That is very true Durko..............what I like most about you is that for such a young man you are very mature, wise and sensitive. You must be very old soul. I wish I was mature like you when I was your age, lol. But maybe it was not meant for me, because I would not be able to deal with the reality I was in at that time. Nevertheless, we all have different life path and the main thing is to learn the lessons along the way. All I can say at this point is that I am glad we stayed in touch and we are both here. Steemit is the ideal place for both of us XOXO

Yum! I have sweet potatoes on my weekly meal plan more often than not. Though artichokes have always intimidated me a bit. Perhaps I will eventually give your way of cooking them a try! π
