Sweet Potatoes are Yummy!

Can you believe I've never made Sweet Potatoes before? I've always been intimidated by how big and tough they are but I'm no longer scared of them! Tonight I made Mashed Sweet Potatoes and they turned out just perfect! I just pricked the potatoes with a fork all over and baked them in a 350°F oven for 1 hr and 15 min. Then I scooped out the flesh and mixed it with some butter, thyme, salt and pepper. That's it! So easy and a great change up from the regular Mashed Potatoes. I served it with some pork chops braised with apples and onions and it was the PERFECT fall meal! How pretty are those colors?
