Chipotle Orange Sweet Potatoes

Makes 8 servings.

Ingredients :

4 large sweet potatoes

1 small can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (you will be using 2 tablespoons of the adobo

sauce in the recipe)

Juice of 1 orange


Method :

1. Heat oven to 375 degrees.

2. Bake sweet potatoes directly on oven racks for 1 hour, or until tender when pierced with a fork.

3. Remove potatoes from oven, slice in quarters.

4. Carefully slide the potato skins off and discard. (Careful -- the potatoes are very hot!)

5. Place potatoes in a large bowl and mash.

6. Add 2 tablespoons of adobo sauce to the potatoes and blend thoroughly.
(If your tongue can take it and you want a more fiery and spicier dish, mix some chopped
chipotle peppers into the potatoes.)

7. Add the orange juice and salt. Mix until blended.
