My feelings about these Garlic Hasselback Sweet Potatoes may be a bit too much to handle. But they are the perfect side dish for any meal. I have been on top of my meal-prep game this month and these have been a constant every week. They are not only delicious and versatile, but they are surprisingly easy to prepare.
