Ingredients (use vegan versions):

• 1 yam (or sweet potato)
• 1 tablespoon fresh chopped ginger
• 1 tablespoon butter alternative (I like earth balance)

Directions:

The measurements above are for one person who will eat one yam.

-cook yam(s) – I use my microwave if it is just
for me. If I am making a lot, I peel each yam, cut into
cubes (about 1.5 inches square, usually 8
pieces per yam), and boil them until tender.

-mince ginger – if you love ginger, the more
the gingeryer.

-when yam(s) is cooked I either:

A: cut it open and scoop out insides into a
bowl and mash them (careful – very hot!)
or

B: (if boiled) strain and mash them

-add ginger and butter substitute, mix well.

No joke, good stuff, and cheap and easy too!
