Ingredients

  • 3 large sweet potatoes about 12 ounces each
  • ⅓ cup lite coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger or ginger paste*
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Pierce the sweet potatoes all over with a fork. Cook in the microwave on HIGH until tender when pierced with a fork, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Let the potatoes rest until cool enough to handle.
  2. Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop the flesh out of the potatoes and place in a medium-sized bowl. Add the coconut milk, ginger and salt.
  3. Using a hand mixer, mix until the potato mixture is smooth. Alternatively, use the back of a fork or a potato masher.

  • Weight Watchers Points: 5 (Freestyle SmartPoints), 3 (Points+)
  • *I use the Gourmet Garden stir-in ginger paste, which is sold in the herb and produce section of most grocery stores.
