Sweet Potatoes; I know I don’t need to tell you guys again that these are one of my favorite foods not only because they are delicious but also because they are nutrient packed!

Here is a relatively quick, easy and HEALTHY version of mashed potatoes that is great to make in big batches and use leftovers for lunches (especially on these cold winter days).

Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients:

• 1 lb sweet potatoes
• 1/2 cup coconut milk
• 1 tbsp ground ginger
• 1 tsp cinnamon

Directions:

Cut the sweet potatoes into small cube sized pieces

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and place all the sweet potato cubes into the water – cook for about 25 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

Drain the water out of the pot and mash together the cubes using a masher or large utensil.

Lastly, add the milk, cinnamon and ginger and mix well.
