The whole episode is worth checking out here: Potato, My Sweet. They can be very versatile.

My suggestion for leftover Chipolte Sweet Potatoes is to make an Americanized version of Sheppard’s Pie…
Saute one meduim onion and a few sliced Anduie sausages with a pat of butter or a dash of olive oil for 3-4 minutes.

Add one bunch of chopped collard greens and a squirt of lemon juice.
Saute for another 3-4 minutes then add 1/4 red wine. simmer to reduce.

Grease a shallow baking pan with butter. Fill the pan 1/3rd the way with the mashed Chipotle sweet potatoes. Fill another 3rd with sauteed sausage, onions and collard greens. Top the pan off with remaining mashed sweet potatoes. Sprinkle with nutmeg and bake for 20-30 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
