Bacon Chipotle Mashed Sweet Potatoes

This is my favorite fall side dish! It goes great with turkey, pork, chicken, or sauteed vegetables. Gluten free, with a little heat and sweet. 

Ingredients:

• 3 Large Sweet Potatoes, or approximately 1 ½ pounds, peeled and cubed.

• 16 oz Bacon

• ½ cup Milk

• 3 Tbsp Butter

• 1 Lime, juiced, or 2 Tbsp

• 1 Can Chipotle Chilis in Adobo Sauce

• 1/3 cup Real Maple Syrup

• ½ tsp Salt

• ½ tsp Cinnamon

Directions:

Grill bacon until crisp, set aside on a paper towel. Place sweet potatoes in large pot, cover with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes or until fork tender. Drain and return to pan. Add milk, lime juice, and butter, mash to combine. Remove 2 adobo chili’s from can and finely chop, save the rest for later. Add maple syrup, salt, cinnamon, and chilis, blend until smooth. Pour mixture in a medium size casserole dish, top with chopped bacon.
