Good Morning,

Inspired by last nights dinner and Tina @ Carrots N Cake, I used my leftovers in my smoothie this morning!

Sweet Potato Smoothie: Somewhat similar to Tina’s Smoothie but with strawberries added.

BLEND, BLEND, BLEND…

I was worried I may not like this as much as just a plain sweet potato but it was great!  I probably wouldn’t do this as a breakfast smoothie again, save it for the afternoon or for dessert.

Speaking of Crazy Combos, last nights dinner consisted of shrimp tossed in Evoo and a little bit of S&P.  I really wanted to cook with the shrimp I had bought earlier this week. 

So last night I kept thinking I didn’t want any brown rice or whole wheat pasta, what could I make for dinner?  I completely forgot I had sweet Potatoes…duh!  So, I made sweet potatoes for the bf and I with black beans.

• Sweet potato
• black beans
• Sprinkle of cheese
• Oikos plain Greek yogurt…No, it’s not sour cream…better than sour cream!

This is the best sweet potato I’ve had in a long time!  Chris (the bf) has never had a sweet potato and he loved it.  :)

This filled my tummy nicely, this potato was huge!

What kind of toppings do you like to put on your sweet potatoes or regular potatoes?
