Carefully toss to coat, and then return the baking sheet to the oven.and bake for an additional 20 to 25 minutes, until the sweet potatoes are soft and the other vegetables are crisp-tender.

Lightly rub the spinach to coat, and then arrange in a single layer over the whole tray. Return the tray to the oven and bake for 5 additional minutes, until the spinach is very lightly crisp and softened. Remove the tray from the oven and set it aside to cool.
