Alabama NewsCenter — Recipe: Greek Yogurt Sweet Potato Pecan Bars

By: Andrea Mathis

For the holidays, sweet potato pie is a must. Some people choose to have pumpkin pie on their holiday menus, but I’m not a huge fan. I know what you’re probably thinking – “but, Andy, you have pumpkin recipes.”

Let me explain. I absolutely love pumpkin-flavored stuff, but pumpkin pie … not so much.

These Greek Yogurt Sweet Potato Pecan Bars are a great addition to your holiday menu. They have that same, familiar taste of a sweet potato pie but with fewer calories. They are made with plain nonfat Greek yogurt and reduced-fat margarine. When making these bars, I used my Ninja Professional Blender with Nutri Ninja Cups to give the filling its creamy texture and to combine all ingredients evenly. I almost always use my blender to combine ingredients because it cuts my mixing time in half.
