Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 1/4 cup skim milk or almond milk
- 3 tbsp. butter or margarine
- 2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
- 1/4 cup chopped toasted walnuts or pecans

- Bake 10 minutes or until potatoes are heated through. Sprinkle with nuts and (if desired) cheese, and serve.
