Chipotle Smashed Sweet Potatoes


Chipotle Smashed Sweet Potatoes


I wanted to try something different for Thanksgiving this year instead of turkey. Do I want to do pasta? Perhaps a pork loin. I just don't know!

I was watching the Food Network this morning and Guy Fieri was doing his version of his Thanksgiving dinner. He had pork loin AND pasta. What?? And he did a sweet potato recipe that looked fabulous! http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/guy-fieri/whiskey-glazed-sweet-potatoes-recipe/index.html
But it has apples in it and Himself cannot do much fruit because of diabetes. 

So I went to the Food Network Website to search for the recipe. Instead I came across Alton Brown's recipe for his Chipotle Smashed Sweet Potatoes. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/chipotle-smashed-sweet-potatoes-recipe/index.html

These sweet potatoes had such a great sweet, smokey flavor! So good! 

I forgot to take a picture, but here is the picture from the Website. If I make it for Thanksgiving, I will post my recipe. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
