Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400F.

2. 2

   Cut sweet potatoes into 2 inch pieces. You can choose to peel yours, but I like the flavor and left mine on.

3. 3

   In a large bowl, combine potatoes and peeled garlic with olive oil. Stir to coat evenly. There is no need to chop the garlic.

4. 4

   Place on a foil lined rimmed cookie sheet and bake for 30-35 minutes.

5. 5

   While it's baking, combine the three soups and water.

6. 6

   Saute mushrooms in 1 Tbsp of butter until golden brown and most of the water has cooked off. Combine with gravy mixture.

7. 7

   When potatoes and garlic are soft, transfer to a stand mixer or large bowl. Mix with 4 tbsp of butter and chicken broth. Add salt and pepper to taste.

8. 8

   Pour gravy over potatoes and enjoy!
