March Madness Day 12: Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Makes 6 servings

4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 1/2 cups water
1 tsp salt
2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp milk (I used 1%)
Salt and pepper to taste

Place potatoes, water and salt in slow cooker.  Cover and cook on low for about 4-6 hours.  Drain the potatoes and then return to the slow cooker.  Mash the potatoes with a fork or potato masher.  Stir in the butter (until melted) and milk.  Salt and pepper to taste.

Review:
I am really into sweet potatoes lately.  They are packed with nutrients and that makes me feel better about the fact that I’m adding butter to them.  I personally prefer my sweet potatoes baked (like a baked potato).  The consistency of these mashed sweet potatoes reminded me of baby food.  But they were still good and if you have a baby it would be a great (and easy) way to make baby food.  3 stars (I am the ONLY person in my family that will eat them…wah!)

    If you use a milk with less than 2% fat in it (1%, skim, etc.) they have found that your body cannot process the calcium out of it. "Whole" milk is actually only 4%.
