Nothing too difficult with this mashed sweet potato recipe, just a slightly different take on traditional mashed potatoes. If you love sweet potato casserole that is usually only found on Thanksgiving - you know the one that’s often topped with marshmallows and seems to have an equal mix of sugar to sweet potato, then you may be surprised to find that the versatile sweet potato almost makes a delightful savory side dish.
