Brussels Sprout & Sweet Potato Blend

Ingredients

• 1 cup Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
• 1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cubed

Method

1. 01

   Trim and halve 1 cup of Brussels sprouts. Peel and cube 1 medium sweet potato into 1-inch pieces.

2. 02

   Place sweet potato cubes in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 6 minutes.

3. 03

   Add Brussels sprout halves and continue steaming for another 10-12 minutes until both are completely tender.

4. 04

   Transfer to a blender with 3-4 tablespoons of steaming liquid.
