Ingredients
28 ounce Stewed Tomatoes (I used my canned tomatoes- RECIPE found here)

1-2 tsp Garlic Powder
1-2 TBS Sugar
1 large Sweet Potato
1 TBS Olive Oil
1-2 tsp SALT

Combine both cans of tomatoes into a high powdered blender and blend until smooth. Pour mixture into a large pan and add tomato paste and seasonings. Bring to a boil and let simmer on medium low while you cook the sweet potatoes.
Dice the sweet potatoes into small pieces and coat with Olive Oil and salt. Bake at 425 degrees for approximately 20 minutes or until tender.
