This simple recipe is a big hit
in our family - we rarely have leftovers.
Almost any apple will do, except Granny Smith alone (too tart - you'll need to add sugar)
or Red Delicious (too soft and bland). We think a mixture of Golden Delicious and
Macintosh is nice.

Servings: 6
3 sweet potatoes -- sliced 1 inch thick
4 apples -- quartered
Put sliced yams in a bowl with a small amount of water. Microwave on high for 10 minutes,
or until yams are soft. Add quartered apples and microwave again, 3-4 minutes. Push
through china cap colander to puree and remove peels and seeds.
note: (You can also peel the sweet potatoes, and peel and
core the apples before cooking. Then you can use a potato masher instead of the china
cap.)
