My fav dish this year was... the gravy. But #2 was definitely the sweet potatoes. They were delish, and paleo. I guess I better learn how to take better photos!
Baked Mashed Sweet Potatoes
2 or 3 quartered sweet potatoes
1/4 c canned coconut milk
2 eggs
cinnamon, salt, cardamon to taste
Cook the sweet potatoes however you want - microwave whole, boil quarters, bake etc. Mash potatoes, mix with coconut milk. Beat eggs well - at least a minute or 2 then mix w/ potatoes. Add spices. Cardamon is completely optional, but I have been on a cardamon kick recently, so it is in everything I make right now. You can also add pecans on top.
Bake in a 350 oven until top is slightly browned. (Took me an hour.)
Nom Nom Nom. I love coconut milk, but it doesn't work for me in mashed potatoes, sweet or otherwise. The eggs cut the coconutty taste, and give it more of a buttery flavor. Plus, there is nothing wrong w/ adding a little protein to your carbs.
