This was a different way to serve sweet potatoes and I enjoyed the savory additions. I mashed the potatoes as directed and spooned into aluminum shells; carefully filling each shell with both mixtures. They look pretty & I froze most of them for future summer meals. Thank you for sharing the recipe! Made for ZWT&.

Wonderful way to serve up potatoes! I did cut the recipe back so that I used 2 russet potatoes & 2 sweet potatoes, which was more than enough 4 of us, & we had enough left over to have for another meal! Very nice presentation, & I always appreciate finding a new way to serve tasty sweet potatoes! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed as a THANK YOU for tagging in PRMR during the recent Tic-Tac-Toe event]

I live in Knoxville, TN with DH, my beautiful son, and the most spoiled cat on the planet! I grew up in Cincinnati and landed in TN by way of Bloomington, IN and Santa Fe, NM. Needless to say, it's been a long, strange trip!!
To explain the name: I was veg for 11 years, vegan for 1. In the last year or so I started eating poultry and fish again, but my brother-in-law's nickname for me (smelly vegetarian) has always stuck.
Also...thanks a million to my Zaar fairy godperson :)!!!
