These were a bit of a disappointment. The sweet potatoes were too soft and the goat cheese was too tangy.

These were so good! I used rosemary instead of thyme and they were still amazing.

I'm not usually a fan of sweet potatoes, but these crostini were surprisingly delicious. The goat cheese and honey really balanced out the sweetness of the potatoes.
