Hayden and Julie share recipes...pretty simple idea! And maybe some beer and wine reviews (not that we're any sort of experts, we just know what we like, perhaps you'll like 'em too!).

mashed sweet potatoes
Wow. It has been a while since I posted anything. Can we say slacker? I had a good reason for a while, we were packing up our house, moving, and then remodeling our kitchen. But the kitchen remodel has been done for a few weeks now, so I have no excuses. I am back on the wagon with this really easy and delish side dish. Makes around 6 servings.
What you need:
4 sweet potatoes
3/4 c milk
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp honey
3 tbsp maple syrup
2 tbsp brown sugar
dash cinnamon
salt to taste
What you do:
Bring around 6 cups of lightly salted water to boil, while the water is boiling peel and cube the potatoes into dice sized pieces. Add potatoes, boil for 20 minutes or until fork tender. Drain water, mash potatoes slightly (i used a hand mixer but you could certainly use a stand mixer) add butter and all sweeteners and mix some more, then slowly add milk until it is the desired consistency, you may need a little more than 3/4 cup but I found that was about right for the amount I had. Serve warm!
These were very good and I will definitely be making them again. Look for more recipes soon! I have a few stored up, many without pictures but I am going to post them anyway bc they were so good.
Enjoy!
