Super Simple Mashed Sweet Potatoes

I love these, especially when it gets to be fall. Maybe it's b/c they're orange, like the leaves. But no matter the reason, these are pretty tasty!

You'll need:
1-2 large sweet potatoes
2 tbsp butter, cut up
1/2 cup brown sugar
splash of milk

1. peel and cube the sweet potatoes.
2. boil sweet potatoes until soft
3. drain potatoes and return to pot (or bowl, if you'd like)
4. add all milk, butter, and brown sugar to potatoes
5. mash until desired consistency
6. Serve with or without mini-marshmallows on top (for a low cal version, skip the mallows!)

Subsitutions: use Splenda brown sugar in place of regular brown sugar

Best enjoyed on a cool fall evening.
