Whip up an easy and delicious Thanksgiving side with this how-to video from BHG.com -- mashed sweet potatoes with goat cheese and pistachios. Use three pounds of sweet potatoes that have been peeled and cubed. Place them in a three-quart saucepan and enough water to cover.  Bring the potatoes to a boil, and then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 10 minutes. Melt a little butter in a skillet and add a half-cup of chopped pistachios, and cook them one to two minutes over medium heat. The potatoes are ready when you can easily pierce them with a knife. Pour some half and half and butter over the potatoes, and then mash the potatoes. Finish by stirring in some goat cheese and thyme.
