Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place sweet potatoes on a small foil-lined baking sheet and roast until very tender, about 1 hour. Halve lengthwise and let sit until cool enough to handle.

Peel potatoes, discarding skins, and transfer flesh to a food processor. 


Purée until smooth. 


Add spinach (with any liquid) and nutmeg and purée until smooth.


The purée will keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
