Sweet Potatoes & Sausage

A unique flavor combination...surprisingly good.

• 3/4 lb (3 links) Italian Turkey Sausage
• 2 sweet potatoes (about 5'' long)
• 1 TBSP Zero calorie sweetener (white or brown sugar)
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• cooking spray

1. Preheat the oven to 450.
2. Bake the sweet potatoes for 1 hour. (You can microwave, but they're not as tender).
3. While the potatoes cook, heat a large pan to med-high heat, and coat with cooking spray. Cut the sausage into bite-sized pieces and cook until brown on all sides. Drain.
4. Cut potatoes open and scrape out the pulp into a bowl. Discard the skins. Sprinkle the cinnamon and sugar in the bowl and mash gently with a fork or spoon until combined. Change oven temp to 350.
5. Spoon the potatoes in the bottom of a 8x8 or loaf pan. Top with sausage and cook at 350 for 30-35 minutes.
