Ingredients:

Serving

4 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks (approx 1-in ch in size)
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp brown sugar (optional)
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 lbs pork loin, cut into bite size pieces
2 tbsp vegetable oil
2 stalks celery, diced
1 medium onion, chopped
2 granny smith apples, peeled and cubed
1/2 cup unsweetened apple juice
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tsp fresh thyme, chopped
1 tsp fresh sage, chopped

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°F.
1) In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook sweet potatoes until fork tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, then return to pan with next four ingredients, mash and set aside.
2) Season pork with salt & pepper. In a large, deep skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook pork, in batches until browned on all sides; remove to a plate.
3) Add celery and onion to the fat in the pan and sauté until lightly browned. Return pork to pan with apple, apple juice, broth, thyme, sage and additional salt and pepper; reduce heat and simmer for 5-8 minutes or until liquid has reduced by about two-thirds.
4) Transfer to large baking dish (I used a 9x13 glass cake pan) and top with sweet potatoes, smooth top. Bake for about 30 minutes, until browned on top.
