Sweet Potatoes Mediterranean Style

We think you'll love how you can just eat this whole dish with a spoon. Simply scoop up some chickpeas (garbanzo beans) with the soft sweet potatoes for a comforting bite full of flavor and fiber. But the most delicious thing about this baked dish, is that it only takes 30 minutes to prepare, from the very start, to the final serve.
