A great alternative to boring old mashed potatoes.

Ingredients:

2 or 3 sweet potatoes- 1 1/2 to 2 lbs
~1/3 cup milk or cream
~1 1/2- 2 Tbsp butter
1 tsp salt
black pepper to taste (Everything in this is to taste.)
~1 1/2- 2 Tbsp lime juice
cilantro is optional ~1 tsp

1.  Pierce sweet potatoes and throw in the microwave for 8 minutes or until mushy.  Allow to cool before removing skins.
2.  Butter should be softened or melt it with the milk in a saucepan over low heat.
2.  Put all ingredients in mixer and mix on low speed until the milk is mixed in.  Turn on high to make the potatoes nice and creamy.

Super easy.  Everything is to taste and it's easy to make more or less.  The cilantro is optional and I'd suggest you add the lime juice slowly and taste often.  It can get overpowering quickly.
