Sweet Potato, Goat Cheese and Sage Pasta Pile-up
Author Notes: Pile up some sweet potatoes with savory goat cheese and some fresh sage and you get a party on a plate! This is one of those 30 minute meals that is sure to dazzle! - amreen
Serves 8
- 2 sweet potatoes
- 1/2 pound lasagna noodles
- 8 ounces goat cheese
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 bunch sage
- salt and pepper to taste
- Bring two pots of water to boil, meanwhile scrub the potatoes and stab them with a knife. Once the water is boiling toss in the potatoes and cook until easily impaled. This should take around 20 minutes.
- Once the potatoes are done remove them from the heat, for a quick cool down run cold water over them. Put the lasagna noodles in the other pot of boiling water and set the time for about 10 minutes
- Once the potatoes are cooled pinch off their skin. Cut them into small pieces and mash them up with the goat cheese. (Note if you want them creamy heat them up a little while you are doing this). Salt to taste.
- In a sauce pan heat the butter on medium-low. Add the sage and cook until browned, about 4-5 minutes.
- Drain the lasagna noodles. Place a few noodles on a plate and scoop some of the sweet potatoe mixture around them. Repeat this until all the noodles and mix are used up.
- Crack some pepper on top and devour!

sorry, I got lost after step 4. What do I do with the pan of hot buttery sage?

If you really want a taste of heaven, make your own home-made noodles for this dish. Home-made are so much more delicate than store bought. My family loved this dish and I will definitely serve it to guests at my next dinner party. Thanks for a great recipe.

I have always been a huge fan of squash or sweet potato filled pasta. I can't believe I never thought to experiment with lasagna noodles in place of the ever intimidating ravioli. Feeling indebted by your ingenious! Bravo!

Amreen, Pierino is referencing your misspelling of "potato" in the recipe name, which was a famous flub of Dan Quayle's.
This looks delicious.
