Scalloped Sweet Potatoes

The make-ahead is the real plus to these potatoes in their creamy sauce. There's less to fuss about when there's company if you have at least one standby vegetable that just needs to bake and crisp while you make gravy.

Sweet Potato Soup

This colourful soup is thick and tasty with its slight curry flavour. If curry isn't a favourite accent, decrease the curry paste to 1 tsp (5 mL). Choose a garnish from Soup Toppers, such as the pesto. Of course, you don't have to pur?the soup to enjoy its fresh taste.

Roasted Sweet Potato Hummus

Turn everyday hummus into something swoon-worthy. It's as easy as blending in cooked sweet potato, which not only adds a rich deep hue but also pumps up flavour and boosts nutrients. It still makes a great appetizer, or you can use it as the base for a protein-packed vegetarian dinner salad. Trust us, you won't miss the meat.
