Turkey quinoa meatloaf, sweet potatoes cooked at the same time as the meatloaf and asparagus. The sweet potatoes were just scrubbed and put onto a cookie sheet in the oven below the meatloaf. I took the meatloaf out first and let the sweet potatoes cook while the meatloaf sat. Asparagus awesome. I just snap of the tough ends, toss in olive oil, sprinkle liberally with lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste, sick in the oven with the sweet potatoes where the meatloaf was and let cook for the next 15 minutes, while the meatloaf sets. You always want to let meat cool so that all the juices don't seep out. You know your asparagus is done when you can see some of the olive oil bubbling in the corners. You can tell the sweet potatoes are done when one of them has cracked and some delicious juices are coming out. At this point your house begins to smell like sweet potatoes. YUM! No butter or anything necessary.
