2. Cook the vegetables in the microwave according to package directions; drain and
set aside. In a bowl, beat the egg together with 1 tablespoon of the milk. Stir in
bread crumbs, pepper, and ham; mix well. In another bowl, mash the sweet
potatoes until almost smooth; spread onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9"
Pyrex pie pan treated with nonstick spray. Spread the ham mixture over the sweet
potatoes. Top with the vegetables. Combine the soup and remaining milk; spoon
it over the vegetables. Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes, or until heated
through.
PORTUGUESE CALDO VERDE
Kale provides the green in this soup. If kale isn’t available, you can substitute
collard greens, but it will change the flavor somewhat.
