Sweet Mashed Potatoes

No, it's not mashed potatoes with sugar, it's mashed potatoes using SWEET potatoes! Healthier! Here we go!
In greedy mints:
- 4 Large Sweet Potatoes
- Smart Balance Lite (or butter if you're a fatty)
- Skim Milk
- 1 Packet Hidden Valley Ranch mix
1) In a large pot boil enough water to cover 3-4 large sweet potatoes (I used the yellowish white ones, but this would probably work with orange ones too)
2) While the water is boiling, cut up the potatoes roughly into 1-2 inch cubes.
3) Once the water boils, put all the potato chunks in the water and boil for 12-14 minutes.
4) Drain the water and potatoes through a colander.
5) Put the potatoes in a big bowl, and start mashing.
6) Add 3-4 Tbs smart balance, ranch mix, and about 1/3rd a cup of milk (start small, but adjust to taste and texture).
7) Keep mashing
8) EAT!
