Festive sweet potatoes (ada)
4 servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | Sweet potatoes | |
| 2 | cups | Crushed pineapple in juice |
| 2 | teaspoons | Cinnamon |
| 1 | teaspoon | Nutmeg |
| 1 | tablespoon | Slivered almonds; for garnish |
Directions
Forget the gobs of butter and brown sugar. Pineapple and spices add flavor but not unwanted calories and fat.
1. In a large saucepan, boil the unpeeled sweet potatoes over medium head for 45 minutes or until you can pierce them easily with a fork; or bake them directly on the rack in a preheated 375 degree oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
2. After completing either method of cooking, let the potatoes cool and then gently peel them.
3. Mash the potatoes with the pineapple and spices.
4. Place in a 1 quart casserole dish and top with slivered almonds.
5. Bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees.
