Thanksgiving is eight days away. Eight days! Can you even believe it? Have you planned your menu? Are you hosting dinner? Or are you going to be a guest at someone’s table? I’m sorry for all of the questions. I’ll stop now. I realize this is probably more pressure and stress than help.

However, no matter what your plans are these sweet potato crostini would be a great addition to your holiday party. They are so simple, nutrient-dense and packed with flavor. They also take just twenty minutes to put together. The brie and the jalapeños, and the honey and the herbs are a match made in heaven. These flavors are meant to be together.

And for a Thanksgiving turned Christmas vibe, you could easily turn these sweet potato crostini into regular white potato crostini. Just swap out your potato of choice, and finish the recipe as usual. You could even add a pop of pomegranate because that would be extra festive. And extra tasty.

This sweet potato crostini as a holiday appetizer is sponsored by Rio Luna Organic Peppers. And I’m super into these certified organic, non-GMO babes. I’m fully embracing my new Tex-Mex culture right now with sweet tea sangria and adding these jalapeños for an extra kick of spice to every meal and recipe.
