With all the pumpkin this and pumpkin that talky-talk, I thought I'd bring you another fall favorite (well, year 'round fav, no lie) of mine ~ sweet potato! I know what you're thinkin' "day-um girl, how you do that?" Well, aren't you in luck, because I'm-a gonna tell ya! (Also, we all know my next recipe will probably have a lil pumpkin in it haha)
