Tempt My Tummy Tuesday...


Well, since I'm on kind of health kick right now AND I found a veggie recipe that Brooke just gobbles up I thought I would make that my recipe for TMTT this week. 
Check the L & L's weekly Tempt My Tummy Tuesday at Lisa's blog this week!! 

Whipped Sweet Potato Casserole

4-5 sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed (yea, I actually peeled them!)
1/4 c fat free half and half
3 tbsp light butter
4 tsp brown sugar
1 tbsp cinnamon

Place the peeled and cubed sweet potatoes  in water and boil for approximately 20 minutes. Drain. 
In a microwave safe bowl, combine the butter and half and half and heat in the microwave for a minute or until the butter melts. Add this to the cooked and drained potatoes. Also add the cinnamon and brown sugar. Using and electric mixer, whip the potatoes until smooth and creamy. Add more brown sugar and cinnamon, if necessary (okay - I believe I will!!)

Brooke had TWO helpings of this!!

Look at you. You figured out the Linky thing. Awesome. So glad to have you join along. I am excited about this recipe! I love fat free half and half. I just don't get it. HOW can it be fat free and half and half - it is a contradiction that I can' grasp. I try not to think about it, I just use it.... in my coffee, every morning.
