Place the sweet potato pieces on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly caramelized.

While the sweet potatoes are roasting, slice the fresh figs in half and roughly chop the pistachios. In a mixing bowl, combine the figs, pistachios, and crumble the goat cheese on top. Drizzle with honey and gently toss to combine.

Once the sweet potatoes are done roasting, let them cool slightly before adding them to the bowl with the figs, pistachios, and goat cheese. Gently mix everything together, being careful not to smash the sweet potatoes.

Tips:

For an extra flavor boost, try drizzling some balsamic glaze over the finished dish before serving.
