Yes, please! Sweet potatoes make EVERYTHING better.

ReplyDeleteYum, looks delicious! I've been using cauliflower in place of half the noodles in my mac and cheese all winter, I'm going to have to try this variation.
ReplyDeleteEven though I will never be swimsuit ready. That, for me, is a hopeless thing.
Looks delicious!

ReplyDeleteI'm here bright and early because I can't resist chili mac. It is one of my all-time favorite casseroles and I couldn't wait to see what you've done with it. I ducked over to Marcus' site and can tell you you've tempted me to try this. I love the addition of the potatoes. Have a great day.Blessings...Mary

Cool that you are on his blog! Awesome! :)
ReplyDeleteOoh yum, I love this idea! I've bookmarked about a million pumpkin mac and cheese recipes that for some reason I always forget to try, so maybe I'll have to try sweet potato instead!
ReplyDeleteThis looks great, Joanne! I love chili mac :) Adding sweet potatoes is such a smart way to healthify it.
ReplyDeleteSweet & spicy...love it!
ReplyDeleteUm, this looks incredible!!! So creamy and comforting!
ReplyDeleteDrool. Heading over for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteSwimsuit season is not something that falls on my calendar! Even so, this sounds like a really creative and tasty twist on the classic mac. Sweet potatoes and spice always seem to go so well together in just about any dish.
ReplyDeleteWow, this dish is FILLED with tons of goodies. And I love that you included the light version, although I'm not sure if I'll abide by it. I'll just do a double workout at the gym :)
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting combination of flavors! I love that you were able to incorporate the soy meat into the dish to get a little more protein in. That's one of my biggest problems when I make a pasta dish.
ReplyDeleteNow that looks comforting without all the guilt!!
ReplyDeleteI'm realy looking forward to eat this, it looks great but healthy
ReplyDeleteooh yum! what a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking I wanted mac and cheese!
ReplyDeleteWe had mac and cheese Monday night - but it was certainly not healthy!
ReplyDeletesounds yum! and tonight I am making a version of cassoulet inspired by you :)
ReplyDeleteI love sweet potatoes, but lately the only ones I can find are monsters - would feed the two of us for a week. Could make this and freeze it.... As to swimsuits....
ReplyDeleteI applaud wholeheartedly the marriage of monterey jack and chorizo!
ReplyDeleteOh my this is perfection....
ReplyDeleteGreat idea Joanne, looks delish!
ReplyDeletethis was absolutely decadent. next time I am doubling the recipe!
ReplyDeletecooked the SPs in the microwave and skipped the chipotle so it wouldn't be too spicy for the baby.
mmmmm!!!!!!!!!
