You can even cheat and use store-bought pie crusts, in which case the whole thing takes about 5 minutes to put together. INGREDIENTS (Serves 3-8) 1 1/2 lb sweet potatoes 1 cup granulated sugar 12 Tbsp unsalted butter (or use corn-oil margarine) 2 eggs 1 tsp vanilla 1/2 tsp nutmeg 1 pie crust, unbaked PROCEDURE (1) Boil potatoes until tender (20-30 minutes). Drain and peel. (2) In a blender, put the potatoes, sugar and butter. Mix up a little, then add eggs, vanilla and nut- meg. (3) Blend ingredients together well, until mixture is very smooth. (4) Pour into unbaked pie shell and bake at 375 deg. F for 45-55 minutes until filling is set. NOTES If you don't want to make your own pie shell, I find that the Pet Ritz factory pie shells work well. RATING Difficulty: easy. Time: 30 minutes preparation, 1 hour bak- ing. Precision: approximate measurement OK. CONTRIBUTOR Susan Liebeskind Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, Georgia, USA shl%gitpyr@gatech.csnet
