So simple to make and so good. A great quick main dish for any meal.

Sweet Potato Mash (Serves 2-4)

• 2 medium to large sweet potatoes or yams
• 8 medium dates (like Deglet Noor)
• 1 apple, quartered
• 1 cup cranberries, fresh or frozen (and thawed)

Bake sweet potatoes 40 minutes at 360º F. We usually cut them in half and bake them on a silicone mat.

Add the dates to a food processor and process until they just start to ball up.

Add the apple and cranberries and pulse to get the chunkiness you like.

Remove potatoes from oven when done and cut them up and mash them in the serving bowls you’ll use.

If you want the double baked look, scoop the potatoes out of their skins, mash them and put the mash back in the skins.

Cover with cranberry sauce and serve.
