Creamy Sweet Potato Happiness

Wow! This recipe is a game changer if you are someone who does not eat sweet potatoes. It tastes like dessert! By adding Shaklee’s vanilla protein powder the protein content of the dish is increased while adding amazing flavor at the same time!

An all time seasonal favorite, sweet potatoes are a root vegetable with colored flesh inside! Mostly orange in color they are loaded with beta carotene, a antioxidant that converts to Vita A in the body. A rich source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals they promote a healthy digestive system.

This recipe includes good fats like coconut milk and ghee for a creamy smooth flavor! You can add more flavor to them with herbs like rosemary, which is my all time favorite with coconut or olive oil drenched over it or turmeric. Eat as a side dish, paired with green vegetables and a main course of 100% grass fed beef, chicken or sustainable or wild caught fish. Bon Appetit!
