Chipotle Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients:

2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 2 inch chunks

2 tbsp butter

1 chipotle pepper (rehydrated in hot water), finely chopped

salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Place the chopped sweet potatoes in a large pot of water. Place over medium high heat and boil until the potatoes are fork tender. Drain the water from the pot, leaving the potatoes in the pot.

Add the butter and chipotle pepper to the sweet potatoes. Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Add chipotle peppers once seasoned depending on how hot you’d like the sweet potatoes.
