Sweet Mashed Potatoes
If you change anything in my house and make it sweet, chances are, 80% of us will like it. True for sweet mashed potatoes. We already LOVE mashed potatoes.. so sweet mashed potatoes were great.
I used three sweet potatoes (not the yam variety). Chopped and boiled. An actual recipe can be found here.
The final product was a coconutty, mashed potatoey sweet treat. Perfect with BBQ chicken.
So, are there any health benefits to adding the coconut milk? Actually, YES! Coconut milk has been shown as containing Lauric Acid (which has anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-microbial, and anti-fungal properties. It can help boost the immune system.. a definite bonus coming into flu and cold season.
