SWEET POTATO PUREE
I learned that sweet potatoes are the single
healthiest vegetable. They’re loaded with carotenoids, vitamin C,
potassium, and fiber. You can dress them up a bunch of different
ways, but this simple puree is ideal. Serves 4
(see photograph)
2 large sweet potatoes
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1. Prick the skin of the sweet potatoes with a fork. Place the potatoes in a microwave-safe dish and microwave on high until they are completely tender, about 13 minutes, turning them once halfway through cooking.
2. Split the sweet potatoes in half, and scoop the flesh into the bowl of a food processor. Puree the sweet potatoes until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste; serve warm.
