Mashed Sweet Potatoes Cooking Light Recipes

If you prefer your sweet potatoes more on the savory side, this dish is for you. Since the tubers are already naturally sweet, we add just a small drizzle of honey to enhance their flavor. The tahini lends a distinct nuttiness and contributes to the overall creaminess of the dish. We use a food processor because it creates an incredibly smooth texture; you can also mash with a potato masher for a more rustic dish.

Maple mashed potatoes are much healthier take on the traditional marshmallow-topped casserole. By cutting out most of the added sugar, we let the natural flavor of sweet potatoes shine.
