Ingredients:
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger

1 pinch fresh ground pepper
2 medium sweet potatoes, unpeeled
1 1/2 cups low sodium chicken broth
1 cup 1% low-fat milk
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, ginger, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 7 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, pierce 2 medium, unpeeled sweet potatoes all over with a fork. Cook in microwave until tender, about 10 minutes. Cool briefly, peel and add flesh to the pan. Add broth and milk.
