Curried Yams





Recovery, this is what I am doing this Monday! ha. I had a fine Labor Day weekend, you?



This recipe is borrowed from a friend and is quite tasty!



Try it as a dip with some Trader Joe's Gorgonzola Crackers or enjoy it along side a nice steak.







INGREDIENTS

4-5 Large Yams, skinned and diced
1 block of cream cheese
3 tbs of butter
1 tsp Curry Powder





DIRECTIONS


Boil diced Yams until you can poke through with a fork, drain and mash. Next add in the cream cheese, butter, and curry powder. Mash well and enjoy!







Alright...Off to get another cup of coffee...and a few advils.

Oh how I love yams! I think I want this, those crackers you mentioned, a nice chilled glass of white something or other, and an afternoon in control of the remote!

I think that cream cheese is good in almost everything! This sounds wonderful! Thanks!

I'll have to try this. I'm not a huge sweet potato fan. Maybe you can change my mind.

Mix the advil into the yams. Best of both worlds.

This sounds like a wonderful recipe. The potatoes would be wonderful with a pork roast. I really like the way this recipe sounds. I hope you are having a great day. Blessings...Mary

This looks delicious!!! But you see, I have a problem with Trader Joe's gorgonzola crackers - I can't stop eating them. hehe
