It doesn’t get much better than a healthy, savory, comfort food like these Blue Cheese Mashed Sweet Potatoes!
These are sure to be a hit and make a great side dish for any holiday gathering! I like to keep a batch in my fridge and warm a little portion when I need a sweet, savory or hardy treat!
If you’re not in to blue, choose another cheese like parmesan. Make ’em how YOU like ’em!
Makes 6-8 servings, keeps in fridge all week.
Ingredients and Instructions:
1. Peel and then slice/cube 5-6 small to medium-sized sweet potatoes
2. Boil cubed potatoes in a large pot for ~ 10 minutes (until taters are soft, but don’t burn your finger checkin’) and then drain
3. In a food processor combine boiled sweet potatoes, 1 clove garlic chopped, 1/4 cup milk of choice (I used rice milk, but any hormone free milk’ll do; plus I’ve made them without milk and they are still delish!), 1/2-1 cup blue cheese crumbles (depends on how cheesy you wanna be), 1/4 cup 2-3 Tbsp olive oil, 1/4 tsp sea salt, 1/4 tsp pepper
4. Serve with blue cheese crumbles atop!
Tumeric and ginger and even honey are wonderful in this mix.
Oooh! Turmeric is a great idea.
Will try honey too!

If I have any leftovers, I’ve been frying them like potato cakes.
Um, YUM! Great idea!
