Ingredients

  • 2 sweet potatoes
  • 3.5 oz or 100g vegan feta cheese 1/2 block violife "Greek-style"
  • 1/4 red onion thinly sliced
  • juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp cracked pepper
  • 1 tsp dried thyme

Instructions

  • Start by washing the sweet potatoes and cutting them in half. Score them with a crosshatch pattern and brush with olive oil, then season with salt and roast in the oven at 395 degrees F (200 C) until they are soft.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, massage the sliced red onion with salt and lemon juice, and let it sit until you're ready to serve.
  • Once the potatoes are done, let them cool for a bit to avoid burning yourself. Cut the vegan feta cheese into squares and remove the same-sized squares from the potatoes. Replace them with the feta cheese and bake for another 5 minutes until the cheese is soft.
  • Season the potatoes with thyme and cracked pepper, and then garnish with the red onions.
  • Serve with a side of salad and enjoy.
