• Peel and cut sweet potatoes into bite-size pieces (the size of the pieces is less important than making them uniform). Heat 1/2 the oil in pan over med heat and add potatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until just brown on all sides and soft(about 12-15 minutes, depending on size. If the potatoes become very dark before they are soft, reduce heat). When they are cooked, add spices and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
• While the potatoes are cooking, wash the greens(do not dry), remove stems and cut leaves into small pieces. Heat remaining oil over med heat, add the garlic and cook for a minute before adding greens. Stir often and cook until tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Combine potatoes, honey and lemon juice with the greens, stir and serve.
