Place all of the peeled sweet potatoes into a large pot filled with salted water. Bring to a boil and allow the potatoes to cook until you can easily pierce with a knife. Once soft, drain out the water and mash until smooth.
While the potatoes are cooking, place a pan over medium high heat and cook the sausage meat. Using a wooden spoon, break apart the sausage and cook the whole what through. Once cooked remove the meat from the pan and place on a side plate. In the same pan saute the onions, garlic, and leeks until the onions are translucent. Once onions are ready, add the sausage meat back into the pan and stir to incorporate. Remove from heat.
Pre heat oven to 350F
Pour the sausage and onion mixture into the pot of mashed sweet potatoes. Add in the cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper. Stir to incorporate.
Spoon the potato sausage mixture into a large pie plate or casserole dish. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes and then allow to cool. Serve to someone you love!!
Enjoy!
