SWEET AND SASSY SWEET POTATO POCKETS
This portable recipe was created by Kathy Patalsky, of Los Angeles. Ms. Patalsky came up with the recipe in college to bring to a family feast. "Since I love Thanksgiving, I didn't want to miss out on any of my favorite dishes," she said. "So instead of bringing multiple dishes and crowding the already crowded dinner table, I made these little gems. I wanted my entire vegan Thanksgiving meal stuffed inside a puffy pita pocket."

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Combine the sweet potato, 1/4 cup hummus, tangerine, maple syrup, black pepper and salt. Mash until completely incorporated, and then fold in the onion, carrot and parsley. Set aside.
- Brush the pitas with olive oil, sprinkle with a pinch of fresh thyme and slice into four triangular quarters. Arrange pita bread on a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. You want the edges to brown and the pitas to lightly toast, yet still stay soft on the inside. Do this right before you are ready to fill your pockets.
- Open pita and add the following to each pocket - 1 teaspoon garlic hummus, 2 tablespoons sweet potato mash, 1 tablespoon cranberry sauce, a tablespoon of spinach. Close the pitas and return to baking sheet. Continue until all the pita triangles are assembled.
- Warm stuffed pitas in oven for another 5 to 10 minutes before serving to lock in the flavors. Serve warm.

SORGHUM SWEET POTATOES
The chile in this dish balances the sweetness of the potatoes, and the butter makes everything richer and more opulent. The chef Hugh Acheson said, "I left off the little marshmallows because I think we need to evolve...and my dentist friends would get mad at me." You can garnish sweet potatoes with a variety of things from cooked apples, to more cooked chiles, to hazelnuts or even a dollop of yogurt.

Steps:
- Place the sweet potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, season with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and cook until tender.
- While the sweet potatoes are cooking, melt the butter in a small saucepan, and when the butter bubbles and froths, add the jalapeno and the orange zest. Cook for 1 minute, turn off the heat and then add the cream. Set aside.
- When the sweet potatoes are fork tender, drain them in a colander set up in your sink. Let them drain completely, and then pass them through a ricer or mash them well with a potato masher.
- Add the flavored cream, stock, sorghum, nutmeg and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Mix well and transfer to a serving bowl.

SWEET POTATO POCKET PIES
This recipe is taken from "the ultimate GULLAH cookbook", a book about the African American Gullah people, a taste of Food, History and Culture from the Gullah people of southeastern USA. I have slightly embellished the original recipe to put the sweet potatoe into a pastry to be a finger food vegetable. These pocket pies will be served at the Northside Farmers Market JuneteenthFest. A great tasting food combining USA's low country cooking and Australia Pocket Pies. Options are to combine sweet potatoes with a can of sliced small white potatoes. Pies are less sweet and more like a side vegetable. Or put any other vegetables you'd like to combine with sweet potatoes-bell peppers, hot chili's, leeks, etc.
