Notes
If you have a leftover baked sweet potato on hand, remove the skin and pack it into the measuring cup. You can also use roasted sweet potato chunks, as long as they’re plain with no seasonings besides salt or cinnamon. If you don’t have a cooked one on hand, then you can make a quick ‘baked’ sweet potato in the microwave! Simply wash, rinse, and dry a sweet potato and poke holes in several places with a fork. Place on a paper towel. Cook in the microwave on high for 3 minutes, then flip and cook for 2 more minutes, or until fork tender. Let cool before adding to the smoothie.
