Mashed Rosemary Sweet Potatoes

I love sweet potatoes, and until recently have never made homemade mashed sweet potatoes. As a wedding gift, we received an incredibly efficient Cuisinart food processor. It is a must have in the kitchen, and is super handy for making puree, pesto, and mashed potatoes. I thought I would put the processor to use with a delicious side dish of mashed rosemary sweet potatoes. This side dish was paired with a filet of beef and salad, but it would also pair beautifully with baked chicken or fish. I will be keeping this recipe around for Thanksgiving this year. It was easy to make and with a savory and sweet flavor that will leave you craving seconds.

There are many different facets of interest in my personal and professional life. My passion for baking has developed over the past several years; I love the satisfaction of sharing my delicious treats with friends and family. My sweet tooth, and love of baking is quite contradictory of my profession. I am a dentist, and currently a post-doctoral student, studying a dental specialty. My other interest is health and fitness...again...quite controversial of my baked goods..but, I believe....all things in moderation. I enjoy running and working out, and even making healthy entrees for my husband and I. After following several other food blogs, I decided, that this would be a new hobby. I am passionate about everything I take part in, and hope that you enjoy this blog and that it inspires you to make each day delicious with homemade prepared meals....and desserts :)
