My sweet potato kick started with an innocuous can of sweet potato puree (Farmer's Market). It featured in breakfast and lunch two days in a row. The canned puree is more watery than if you were to self-mash a sweet potato. Nevertheless, the taste doesn't suffer; if fact it's so freakish puddingly good that I'd call it "weed" potato - addictive!
For example, this morning's breakfast: Baked sweet potato s'nog oatmeal with cherries.
--Ringing in the season with seasonal oatmeal themes!--Words alone cannot describe how good this was. It had a texture cross between a pudding and muffin, and of course, full of sweet, sweet 'potato. I made this with Silk s'nog and it did up the festive quotient a bit! Most importantly, before baking, I stuffed dollops of Justin's classic peanut butter randomly throughout the mixture, and digging into chunks of melted PB + sweet potato oats is the best thing to wake up to.
