MASH OH MASH

Ok I know I know I haven't been here in like a whole year! Really bad!πŸ™ˆπŸ™ˆπŸ™ˆ
Gods best to you and yours this year and always. 
I trust you and yours are fantastic and irrespective of all the appearance of gloom you are flourishing and bubbling πŸ’ƒπŸΏπŸ’ƒπŸΏ
So how have been with your health goals? Eating healthier? I did myself in this last Christmas and new year it was disgraceful I tell you! One good thing came out of it sha I am continuing on my journey to completely eradicate sugar from my life. 
I don't have sugar at home but I still can't resist cake and ice cream no matter how good or bad for that matter. 
Work in progress πŸ˜ƒ

On to our mash, this is so far the bast mash I have made to date. 

Ingredients 

3 small sweet potatoes 
1 small beetroot
Half a roughly 6/7" pumpkin 
A good knob of kerrygold unsalted butter
2 tablespoons of cold pressed extra virgin coconut oil 
organic pink Himalayan salt to taste
Dry yellow pepper to taste

Poke holes in the sweet potatoes and beetroot  with a sharp knife, cut up and de seed pumpkin( clean seeds and roast in the oven with salt, cinnamon and a dash of pepper for about 10-15 minutes . Makes a beautiful snack)
Place on the oven rack directly and roast for about 35-45 minutes in a 400F, 200C, gas Mark 6 oven(not preheated)
Turn off oven and leave for another 30 minutes. 

The next step you can use an immersion blender, masher, food processor or blender. 
Mash/blend with butter, coconut oil, salt and pepper until smooth.
Plate and garnish with slices of beetroot and fresh parsley. 

I was going to share but I just couldn't stop eating!



Live healthy
