Tonight was yummy! We bought a ham around the holidays when they were on sale and froze it. We baked it tonight and had it with mashed sweet potatoes and green peas. I made a new recipe for the sweet potatoes and they were really good! I thought I would need to add sugar to these before I tasted it like this but it tasted sweet enough without it. I'm glad I waited! I'm so used to the recipe I usually make at Thanksgiving that I just assumed sugar would be needed, now I know better. My son LOVED it by the way. Here it is:Rachel's Mashed Sweet Potatoes
written by Rachel L - http://cookingformyfamily.blogspot.com
5 medium sized organic sweet potatoes, baked
2 to 3 tablespoons of coconut oil (I used organic expeller pressed so it had no coconut taste but I think it would be good with virgin coconut oil, too)
2 teaspoons vanilla
cinnamon for topping
Peel warm sweet potatoes and mash in a bowl. Add coconut oil (2 to 3 tablespoons depending on taste) and vanilla and stir together. Sprinkle cinnamon on top and serve while still warm. Simple & Yummy!

Because of this photo, I made mashed sweet potatoes tonight. Yum! I just added a bit of butter and a splash of pumpkin pie spice. Turned out wonderfully!
I'm going to trackback to your blog sometime in the next couple of days - I have an entry brewing, but little time to get it down. Come come on over when you can :)
Tara where is your blog?
