Balsamic Pork Chops with Mashed Sweet Potatoes

My husband and I ended up getting a couple of Pork Chops and some Sweet Potatoes at the grocery store.  We didn't really have plans for how we were going to cook them but wanted it to be amazing.  We searched recipes and couldn't find anything that both of us agreed on.  So Cliff ended up on the marinade for the chops.  I think it would have been even better if we would have let it sit all day in it but all we had was about a half an hour.  This marinade was also for two chops.  So if you are cooking more adjust accordingly.  I still can't get over how delicious it was!  
The Marinade:
1/4 cup Balsamic Vinegar
 3 garlic cloves
2 tsp honey
Salt and Pepper to taste

So I started on the Sweet Potatoes.  I had 4 good size potatoes.  Boiled them in a pot.  Drained them and added all the goodness to them.
Sweet Potatoes:
4 Potatoes
1 stick butter
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 cup brown sugar

We mashed all this together and ta da an amazing and really cheap dinner!  Especially since the Pork was on sale for less than $4 a pound! 
Hope ya'll enjoy!  Let me know what you think!
