SAVORY MASHED SWEET POTATOES
2 pounds sweet potatoes, washed and dried
2 tablespoons softened butter
2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
1 teaspoon Ground Ginger
1/2 teaspoon Thyme Leaves
1/4 teaspoon salt
Pierce each potato twice with a fork so excess steam can escape while cooking.
Microwave* potatoes on HIGH 5-10 minutes or until tender, turning potatoes over halfway through cooking. Let stand 5 minutes or until cool enough to handle.
Remove the skin from the potatoes.
Place potatoes and remaining ingredients in a large bowl; mash until smooth and well blended.
* Potatoes can also be boiled. To boil, cut potatoes into pieces and place in a large saucepan. Add cold water to cover 1-inch over
potatoes.
Bring to a boil; cover and cook over medium-low heat 15-30 minutes or until tender. Drain.
Makes 4 (3/4 cup) servings
