Ingredients
- 3 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into 2-inch pieces
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled
- 2 ounces honey-flavored goat cheese

Reviews
I didn’t have a pressure cooker, so I just boiled the sweet potatoes in a pot and then drained. I added the rest of the ingredients plus a small amount of chicken broth to moisten.
