Bake 1 medium sweet potato, let cool and peel. Place in the food processor or mash by hand.
In another pot, boil water and cook your pasta according to instructions, then drain.

For the pupcake mix 2 ½ cups of rice flour with 1 cup of water and 2 eggs.
Chop up a meatball and place half in the muffin pan with the pup-cake mixture, half full.
