I like serving mashed sweet potatoes and yams instead of mashed potatoes with most meals. They have more water than regular potatoes so I find that I use less milk and butter to get the creamy texture that we like. And the yams especially add a great pop of color to any plate!

Sweet potato fries are a yummy alternative to standard French fries. I like using a combination of sweet potatoes and yams to get a nice mix of colors.

Nothing screams the arrival of autumn like the smell of pumpkin bread permeating the house. This year, I had a freezer full of homemade puréed baby foods (zucchini, sweet potato, summer squash and yams) that my son would no longer eat. Not wanting to waste the purées and wanting my son to eat his veggies, I decided to change tactics and turn the baby food into a sweet bread. Each time I've made this bread it has been moist and full of a rich, nutty, spicy autumn flavor.
