Recipe Tips
- Make-Ahead
The sweet potato mixture can be prepared ahead of time. Refrigerate up to 3 days. When ready to serve, microwave potato mixture in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1 min. or until heated through. Spread onto serving plate, then top with remaining ingredients as directed.
- Shortcut
Instead of baking the sweet potatoes in the oven you can cook them in the microwave. Toss the potatoes with oil and 2 Tbsp. water in microwaveable bowl. Microwave on HIGH 10 min. or until potatoes are tender. Spoon potatoes into food processor container, then continue as directed.
- Substitute
Substitute chopped sweetened dried cranberries for the pomegranate seeds.
- Substitute
Prepare this recipe using peeled fresh sweet potatoes cut into 3/4-inch cubes. You will need to cut about 2 medium sweet potatoes to get the 3-1/2-cup measure of cubed sweet potatoes needed to prepare this recipe.
- Substitute
Serve with Triscuit Balsamic & Basil Crackers or Triscuit Cracked Pepper & Olive Oil Crackers instead of the Triscuit Thin Crisps Parmesan Garlic Crackers.
