Smashed Cheesy Sweet Potatoes | My Holiday Help With OXO

We love the Holidays! There, I said it! And there’s no shame in my game! We love it all, from the main course to all of the sides as well. If you’re like me, you too have your favorite foods come the Holidays and this year we teamed up with OXO to showcase our Savory Sweet + Yukon Gold Smashed Potatoes.

Using OXO products for holiday hacks

Our recipe is a take on traditional mashed potatoes, and we’re going to show you how we turned our ingredients into a to-die-for side dish utilizing essential quality OXO products.

Want to take your regular mashed potato recipe to a new level on Thanksgiving? Try our Smashed Cheesy Sweet Potatoes, a creamy and delicious Thanksgiving side dish to serve that will be a crowd pleaser. Plus, I'm sharing a few cooking hacks using OXO products.

Holiday Hacks With OXO products

Holiday cooking includes lots of chopping, mincing, and puréeing ingredients. And to do the job, there is nothing better than the OXO One Stop Chop. This is a manual food processor that quickly chops up ingredients.

The Best Kithchen Tools

I used the OXO One Stop Chop Food Processor ($29.99) to mince garlic, but you can use its sharp blades to cut through fruits, vegetables, nuts, and more.

The Perfect Gifts For People Who Cook

I love how OXO designed this product! It is lightweight, durable, and BPA free! Taking up minimal counter space is also a key feature, and it doesn’t use electricity. You will appreciate its efficiency. I really like the suction cup base, which helps this mini kitchen appliance stay put. How cool is that? So, go ahead and tackle that extra side dish or two because now you have an ideal sous chef to help with all of those prep duties.

The Top Kitchen Tools

Do you have lots of herbs that need to be prepped? Removing the aromatic leaves from herbs like rosemary, thyme, or parsley can be a tedious task. But with the OXO Herb Stripping Comb ($5.99) you will make short work when it comes to prepping all of the herbs you are going to need for your meals this time of year. This is a fantastic tool for kids to use in the kitchen too!

The Best Kitchen Tips

Handle your rosemary like a pro with the OXO Herb Stripping Comb!

The Best Holiday Bakeware

I think any good bakeware worth its salt should have two important characteristics: functionality and beauty. The OXO Glass 3 Qt Baking Dish with Lid ($18.99) is made of thermal shock resistant borosilicate glass, which means it can go from freezer to oven without the need to thaw and no problems. This baking dish has wide, comfortable handles which makes it easy to transport from oven to countertop or table. Along with a slosh-proof lid, it is easy to prepare meals in advance, store leftovers, or take on the go.

The Best Thanksgiving Potatoes

Our Smashed Cheesy Sweet Potatoes are perfect for any Holiday dinner table. Go ahead and buck those traditional potatoes with this awesome upgrade or make both. With these OXO products, you will get it done a whole lot quicker, and that’s a good thing.

The Thanksgiving Sides

Lots of cheese makes for cheesy potatoes, and we didn’t hold back on the sharp with cheddar and smoked Gruyère cheese. Get the recipe down below!
