What You Need
Instructions
Peel and quarter regular potatoes. Peel and cut sweet potatoes into eighths. In large saucepan, cover regular potatoes with cold water; bring to boil and cook for 5 min. Add sweet potatoes; cook another 15 min or until fork-tender. Drain; return to low heat for 3 min to dry, shaking pan occasionally.
Mash potatoes until smooth. Continue mashing while gradually adding milk. Stir in Cheddar cheese, sour cream, onion, salt and nutmeg.
Tips
Choose an all-purpose, starchy potato such as Russet or Yukon Gold; avoid new potatoes. To make ahead, prepare as above then spoon into lightly greased 8-cup (2L) baking dish. Let cool, cover and refrigerate for up to two days. Do not freeze. Reheat, covered, in microwave or in regular oven on medium.
For the Adventurous: Top mashed potatoes with caramelized onions or real bacon bits.
Healthy Eating Tip: Sweet potatoes are an excellent source of vitamin A. One cup (250 mL) of mashed sweet potatoes has more than double our daily requirement of vitamin A, is a good source of vitamin C and is high in fibre.
