Now that the days are getting shorter and the nights are getting cooler, I have been in the mood for some fall comfort foods. A fan favorite in my house is certainly the sweet potato. My sons and husband have yet to meet a spud they didn’t love 😉 As much as I also love sweet potatoes, I find myself lacking creativity when preparing them. I pretty much either bake them or mash them. Occasionally when I am very motivated I will also cook up some sweet potato pancakes as well, but baking and mashing are my go-to choices. Don’t get me wrong, I love a sweet potato no matter how it is prepared, but I have wanted to get a little more creative.
Even though the weather is cooling down, I still love a good smoothie. So why not put two of the things I love together? Enter the Sweet Potato Smoothie! I feel like this time of year pumpkin gets so much love, yet no one really talks about the poor little sweet potato as much. So I’m out to change that. Get ready to treat your taste buds. This creamy, filling smoothie packs in all the flavors of fall and is sure to be a hit with your whole family. It is definitely a hit over here!
