1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon herbs de Provence

½ teaspoon olive oil

For the spinach & tomato sauce

200g baby spinach

2.      Cut diagonal lines into the sweet potato then place in a medium bowl and add paprika, hers de Provence and olive oil. Toss well then place on the baking tray and bake in the oven for 30mins until browned and tender.
