Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Add the tomatillos to the baking sheet and roast for ⏱️ 20 minutes or until the tomatillos are charred. Add the tomatillos and the remaining ingredients to a blender. Blend until completely smooth. Taste and add salt as needed. *NOTE: I like to roast the tomatillos and sweet potatoes at the same time.
