Save Layers of tender roasted sweet potato slices topped with a zesty cranberry jalapeño dip, finished with creamy cheese and fresh herbs. Perfect as a festive appetizer or side dish.
I loved serving these stacks at last year's holiday gathering: everyone enjoyed the pop of tart cranberry with sweet potato and the gentle heat from jalapeño. They disappeared quickly, even among the kids!

Instructions
- Prep and Roast Potatoes:
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss sweet potato rounds with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and arrange in a single layer. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway, until tender and lightly golden. Let cool slightly.
- Make Cranberry Jalapeño Dip:
- In a food processor, pulse cranberries, jalapeño, cilantro, green onions, honey, lime juice, and salt until finely chopped but not puréed. Transfer to a bowl and stir in softened cream cheese until well combined.
- Assemble Stacks:
- Place a spoonful of cranberry jalapeño dip on each sweet potato round. Stack a second round on top, add more dip, and finish with a sprinkle of feta and fresh herbs.
- Serve:
- Serve right away, or chill stacks up to 2 hours before serving.
Save My sister and I laughed when we realized just how quickly these stacks disappeared from the holiday table. They made a memorable start to our family feast and are now requested every year!
