Goat Cheese & Spinach Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Bring a large pot of water to a boil with sweet potatoes in it and cook for about 15 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.

While potatoes cook, saute shallots with olive oil in a medium pan over medium heat until softened and just starting the brown (about 5-7 minutes).

Combine cooked potatoes, sauteed shallots, spinach, goat cheese, milk and thyme (if using) in a medium bowl. Mash together with a potato masher or fork until well combined.

Add salt and pepper to taste and mash again.

Serve warm.
