- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into ½ inch thick strips
- 1 tbsp. apricot preserves
- 2 tbsp. crumbled blue cheese
- Salt to taste

- In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add sweet potatoes; cook until tender and lightly browned, turning occasionally, 12-15 minutes.

ROASTED POTATO AND TURNIP MASH
Ingredients:
- 6 Yukon Gold Potatoes (medium sized), peeled and cubed
- 2 turnips, peeled and cubed 1 inch
- 2 tbsp, olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- ½ cup whole milk, warmed
- 2 tbsp. butter, melted
- 1 spring fresh thyme, leaved removed from stem and finely chopped
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees
- Place the potatoes and turnips on a baking sheet in a single layer, drizzle them with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast the vegetables for 20 minutes. Then, remove the pan from the oven, stir the veggies and continue roasting for 20 minutes longer. The potatoes and turnips will be tender and lightly golden brown when finished.
- Transfer the veggies to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Whip the potatoes on medium speed until creamy, but so you still have some chunks. Turn the mixer down to low speed and add in the milk, melted butter, and thyme leaves. Taste the mash and season with additional salt and pepper to taste, if necessary.
