Preparation

Step 1


Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).



Step 2


Arrange the sweet potato slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Brush both sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.



Step 3


Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the slices are tender and lightly caramelized around the edges.



Step 4


Meanwhile, prepare the topping. In a medium bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, red onion, basil, parsley, olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss well and let the mixture sit while the sweet potatoes finish roasting.



Step 5


Once the sweet potato slices are cooked, allow them to cool for a few minutes.



Step 6


Top each roasted sweet potato slice with a spoonful of the tomato mixture.



Step 7


Sprinkle with the crumbled vegan feta and finish with a generous drizzle of balsamic glaze.



Step 8


Serve immediately.
