2 cloves garlic, minced
2 leeks (white part only), well rinsed and coarsely chopped
1 cup fat free, reduced-sodium chicken broth (you’ll add your own mineral salt)
3 large sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed (about 4 1/2 to 5 cups
1 egg (fresh yard egg or organic egg)
1 cup organic goat’s milk
1 cup shredded reduced-fat Swiss cheese, divided
1/2 tsp. pink Himalayan salt, Dead sea salt or other non-processed salt
1/2 tsp. coarsely ground black pepper
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
Instructions:
1) Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
2) Coat a large nonstick skillet with olive oil. Sauté the garlic and leeks over medium-high heat for 5 minutes.
3) Add the broth and simmer over medium heat until the leeks are tender and most of the liquid evaporates, about 10 minutes.
4) Remove the skillet from the heat and cool slightly.
5) In a large bowl, combine the leek mixture, mashed sweet potatoes, egg, milk, 1/2 cup of cheese, salt and pepper.
6) Spoon the mixture into a medium, shallow casserole or gratin dish and smooth the top and sprinkle it with the remaining cheese and cayenne pepper.
7) Bake until the top is golden brown and the mixture bubbles, about 30 minutes.
