Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Mashed sweet potatoes are naturally creamy and gently sweet, made even better with fragrant rosemary and a touch of black pepper. It’s a cozy side that feels familiar yet a little elevated perfect alongside roasted vegetables or hearty mains.

This is Let’s Veg comfort with subtle depth.
