Fusion Spiced Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Serving Size: 10
I created these mashed sweet potatoes shortly after my firstborn began eating solid food. She loved them then and still does today, as does her little sister. The recipe is a staple in our home year-round, but especially at our holiday dinner table.
