Yams and Apples

I got this quick-and-easy recipe from the "Curves Fitness and Weight Management Plan" book a couple of years ago. I make it several times a month.

This recipe is:
  • delicious
  • inexpensive
  • EASY
  • highly nutritious
  • did I mention that it's EASY??
Ingredients:
1 29-oz can of yams
2 small or 1 large apple diced
1 Tablespoon cinnamon
1 1/2 Tablespoons butter

Directions:
Mash the canned yams in a casserole dish.
Add diced apples and cinnamon, stir.
Top with dollops of the butter.
Cover and cook in microwave on High for 5 minutes.

Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator.
Makes about 8 servings

I just can't say enough about this recipe. It provides all the sweet yumminess of candied yams without all the sugar. It is sooooo good!

So go write "big can of yams" on your shopping list right now, and make the recipe this week!
