She Says: BSI - Sweet Potatoes 2 Ways

Posted the 16/11/2008 03:49:03 By Hangry Pants (Visit website)





In making my BSI submission recipe for this wake I realized that sweet potatoes might just be one of my favorite foods. They are versatile, delicious and nutritious. All star ingredient chosen by sweet Melissa.  


One way I like to enjoy sweet potatoes is mashed, with the skins on …


 



with bananas.


I know the white blobs look like butter, but they’re bananas and they melt in the warm mashed potatoes just like butter! All you do it clean, cut and cook the sweet potatoes in water. Then, when they are soft enough that you can easily put a fork through them, drain and mash. Add a banana, mash some more and enjoy.


 



I can’t entirely take credit for this idea. I starting adding bananas to mashed sweet potatoes after making Rachel Ray’s Sheperd’s Pie. 


Tonight, I used the sweet potato banana mash as the basis for a “pita pizza.” I made another batch of these wraps, but I made on particularly thick and spread the sweet potatoes right on the thick wrap/pizza. Then I added sauteed spinach and roasted eggplant and popped it in the oven heated at 350* for about 10 minutes. As I suspected, the bitterness from the veggies was the perfect compliment to the sweet potatoes.
