Sweet potato puree???

Channing

I was strolling the aisles of Trader Joe's the other day (one of my favorite things to do ) and came across some organic sweet potato puree.

Now, I'm not a cook in any way, but I decided to get it, in a moment of lofty ambition, and now it's just sitting lonely in my cupboard.

I suppose my question is, can I just heat it up, put some splenda and cinnamon on it and call it a side like a regular sweet potato?

Any other suggestions? :flowerforyou:

DIRECTIONS
Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position; heat to 425 degrees. Place potatoes on a foil-lined pan; bake 45 to 60 minutes, until tender. Peel when cool enough to handle.
Puree with salt and pepper in a food processor. With motor running, gradually add milks through feeder tube, then butter. Process until silken. (Can make up to 2 days ahead; store in an airtight container.) Reheat and serve.

This is the recipe I use to make my own and serve it as a side dish, I'm weird I like it on baked turkey breast, mmmmmmmmmm just like thanksgiving!

EDIT: Sorry this was in my recipe box from years back have changed recipe to skim milk and smart start butter.

I would add a little butter, 1 egg, stevia and cinnamon to it and heat it like a soup. Yummy.
