Sweet Potato Mash with Chives & Coconut Yogurt

I have a confession to make, I don't really like sweet potatoes.

I am slightly superstitious though, 

and wouldn't dream of not serving them at Thanksgiving for fear of bad luck.

Recently, I was invited to a cooking demonstration and lunch,

 hosted by the awesome crew from Siggi's yogurt.

 A dish we made that day solved all of my sweet potato problems.

Golden, fresh sweet potatoes are the star of this dish, 

but what we added to it stole the show...

Scrubbed, peeled and boiled sweet potatoes are mashed with butter, chives...

a touch of milk...

then Siggi's coconut skyr yogurt.

So simple and so delicious.

The chives and coconut yogurt add just enough tanginess and zip 

to change my sweet potato mentality...

and it goes perfectly with turkey!
