I saw a recipe on Pinterest that caught my eye, the original can be found here… but I just had to try to lighten it a bit, simplify it a bit… and make it my own… Enjoy!!
Makes: 2 large or 4 small servings
Ingredients:
1-2 cups Red Seedless Grapes
Sea Salt (or table salt)
2 large Sweet Potatoes
2 oz Chèvre
1.5 Tbl Honey
1/2 tsp Cinnamon (Penzey's Vietnamese recommended)
1/8 tsp Nutmeg (fresh ground is best)
Set oven to 450 F. Line a small baking dish with foil, rinse & place the grapes in the dish in a single layer, lightly salt the grapes. Bake for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, microwave the Sweet Potatoes for 6 minutes, let rest a few minutes, flip them over and microwave for another 5 minutes. For best results use pre-wrapped sweet potatoes such as "Biguns", but unwrapped sweet potatoes will also work. Note: microwaves vary in intensity, the sweet potatoes should be cooked soft at this point.
While still hot (carefully) remove the meat of the sweet potatoes from the skin & place in a bowl for mashing. Add to the bowl the Chèvre & Honey, along with Cinnamon & Nutmeg. Mash these ingredients together.
Serve the mashed Sweet Potatoes topped with the Roasted Grapes.
Note: you can swap Butternut Squash for Sweet Potatoes and it also comes out nicely.
