Ingredients

Three medium sweet potatoes, all-natural maple extract (I found mine at Whole Foods), though vanilla or almond extract would probably work as well, three packets of Truvia, a liberal sprinkling of cinnamon (2-3 tablespoons)

Directions

First, cook sweet potatoes, either by baking (wrapped in tin foil) at 350 for about an hour, or by microwaving (cut off ends, poke holes all over sweet potatoes with a fork, place on a plate covered with a damp paper towel, microwave for 4 min, then turn over, then microwave for another 4 min, etc., until potatoes are slightly soft to the touch).

Cut potatoes into approx 2" pieces, put in a large bowl and mash, either with a fork, a potato masher, or a handheld mixer. Add 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of Maple extract, three packets of Truvia, and a very liberal sprinkling of cinnamon. I measure it out into about 1/2 c. servings (three medium sweet potatoes made me about 5 1/2 c. servings) and refrigerate it in snack-sized ziplock bags to bring to work and microwave for lunch and dinner. Enjoy!!
