Sweet Potato Biscuits; Sweet Potato-Black Bean Soup

Time to deal with the inundation of sweet potatoes.

These biscuits were amazing. I used this recipe, which is based on Martha Stewart's. First I cubed & boiled some peeled sweet potatoes, then mashed 'em (tried blender first, unsuccessfully). Froze about half that, and used the rest in the biscuits. Saved the water they were boiled in too, for the soup.


Used the rest of the sweet potatoes in soup, which was essentially the same as the chili I made a couple weeks ago...but soupier. Instead of chipotles in adobo, I used one of our poblanos from this week. Roasted them in a dry iron skillet first:



Didn't put as many spices in either; kept it simple.
