Miso-Maple Sweet Potato Mash
A rustic sweet potato mash with warm spices, white miso, and coconut milk. Sweet potatoes are large-diced and roasted until caramelized, then mashed with umami-rich miso and a touch of maple. Red onion wedges roast alongside and are folded in after mashing for textural contrast. Fully vegan and dairy-free.
