Vegetables Recipe – Creamy Mashed Sweet Potatoes

This is a healthier and not-so-sweet option for those who prefer sweet potato fries to sweet potato pies. I use organic ingredients, but it is not required!

Ingredients

• 4 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
• 4 ounces Neufchatel cheese (such as Organic Valley®), softened
• ½ teaspoon sea salt, or to taste

Cooking Directions

1. Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with cold water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer potatoes until tender, about 20 minutes; drain and transfer potatoes to a large mixing bowl.
2. Beat potatoes with an electric mixer until smooth; add cream cheese and beat again until smooth. Season potatoes with sea salt.
