Sweet Potatoes with Mini Marshmallows

Frozen vegetables are amazing. You can buy a 1 pound bag of pre-cubed, frozen sweet potatoes that have no added yuckiness and steam in the bag in the microwave. Do it. They tastes just as good.

You don't have to put your sweet potatoes on top of a Thanksgiving Turkey Cake but you won't be sorry if you do. I suppose they make a nice side dish too.
