Long Needed Update... Mashed Sweet Potatoes(By Rachel Ray)!

This recipe is not my own, but I swear by these. I have never liked sweet potatoes before.. But I love these! They are even better the next day!

3 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
1/2 stick butter
1 banana, sliced
1 orange, zested and juiced
1 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
Salt and pepper

Boil potatoes until tender, drain and reserve. Return the pot to the stove top over medium heat. Add butter and bananas to the pot. Cook bananas 5 minutes and add the juice of 1 orange to the pot, reserve the zest. Allow the juice to cook out, 1 minute. Add potatoes to the pot and the stock and sugar. Mash potatoes, banana, stock and sugar together until well combined. Season with nutmeg, salt, pepper and orange zest, to your taste. Mash to combine spices and serve.

Prep Time: 10 Mins
Cook Time : 20 Mins
Yield: 8 servings.

We had these with a pork tenderloin dinner. And then had them again on Thanksgiving. These are the best. <3>
