• Bake yams for 40 minutes, or until tender, turning occasionally. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the red pepper, avocado, cilantro, olive oil, green onions, cumin and lime juice.
• Cut yams in half lengthwise, and fluff the centers with a fork. Top with the avocado stuffing. Season with salt and pepper, and top with shredded Cheddar cheese.

MASHED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
• With an electric mixer on low, blend potatoes, slowly adding milk, about 1/2 a cup at a time. Use more or less to achieve desired texture. Add butter and maple syrup to taste. Blend until smooth. Serve warm.

SERENA BAKES SIMPLY FROM SCRATCH

Steps:

• In a large saucepan add yams, cinnamon, sea salt and water.
• Cover and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Turn heat to low. Check yams after 15 minutes to make sure there is liquid still in the bottom of the pan, if not add another 1/4 cup water to prevent burning and check yams for doneness. Recover and continue to cook yams for another 5 minutes or until fork tender. DO NOT DRAIN.
• Remove lid and allow yams to sit for 3 minutes.
• Add butter and pepper.
• Mash yams with a potato masher until smooth and creamy. Add a splash of milk if needed.

• While the sweet potato is toasting, mash the avocado in a bowl. Add garlic and tomatoes. Stir to combine.

• Serve immediately.

EASY CREAMY MASHED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel and cut sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Add to a large pot and add enough water so that they are covered by about one inch of water. Add the salt and bay leaf.
• Bring the water to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain well, and then return the potatoes to the pot. Or if you plan to use a food processor, add them directly to the processor bowl. (A food processor makes extra silky mashed sweet potatoes.)
• Add the butter, cinnamon, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Mash the sweet potatoes with a potato masher until your desired consistency. If using a food processor, pulse until your desired consistency.
• For extra creamy sweet potatoes, stir in sour cream or a splash of heavy cream, milk, or half-and-half. Serve with extra butter and chopped fresh herbs (optional) on top.
