Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add pasta, and cook according to the directions on the box. If adding peas (optional), when you have 2 minutes left on your timer, add in the peas. Drain pasta and peas.

Step 2

Meanwhile, poke a sweet potato with a fork and microwave for 5-7 minutes. Let cool slightly and then remove the sweet potato skin, adding the sweet potato to a blender. Add in the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and milk and puree for 1-2 minutes or until smooth.

Step 3

In the same pot, over medium-low heat, add the butter and let melt. Add in sweet potato puree and stir.

Step 4

Add in the cheese and stir until melted.

Step 5

Add in the pasta and stir until well-coated. If the sauce is too thick, add in some extra milk a few tablespoons at a time.

Step 6

Serve and enjoy!
