Mashed Sweet Potatoes
  1. Peel the sweet potatoes with a hand peeler. Then slice and dice the potatoes into 1-inch to 1 ½-inch chunks.

  2. Bring a large pot of water to boil on high heat. Place the sweet potatoes into the pot and cook them for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork tender. Drain the potatoes over a colander.

  3. Place the potatoes in a large mixing bowl and mash them with a hand masher or electric beater.

  4. Then, pour the butter and milk into the mixture and continue mixing until creamy. Season with salt and pepper.

  5. Scoop the mashed sweet potatoes into a bowl, sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve!

  7. Flavor Variations: You can take your sweet potato mash on a more savory or sweet route, depending on how you want to season it.

  8. Garlic & herb: Add minced and sauteed garlic along with a few herbs such as chives, parsley, or thyme into the mix.

  9. Candied bacon: Use my baked bacon recipe and brush maple syrup over each piece to give it a sweet and savory flavor. Then crush the bacon bits on top of your mashed sweet potatoes.

  10. Smoky and spicy: Add ¼ teaspoon of chili powder, smoked paprika, ground coriander, and ground chipotle chile pepper into your blend.
