I made sweet potato casserole and took to my aunt’s for Thanksgiving dinner this year. I’m the only one in our little family that likes sweet potato casserole. Or sweet potatoes in general. I don’t eat them a lot, but I do like sweet potato casserole. It goes well with Thanksgiving dinner and with Christmas dinners too! Here’s the amounts and ingredients I tweaked and used for my casserole. It was yummy!
Do you fix sweet potatoes? Does your family like them?

Notes
I chop up 6 heaping cups of sweet potatoes and add a few more and then cook. I really don't measure the cooked amount.

Makes me hungry for sweet potato casserole! Maybe we can have it while you are here.
Absolutely love sweet potato casserole. I’m the only one in my family that likes it too, I have a few that will eat a token amount but not enough to make a big pan. I typically get lazy and just buy a can of sweet potatoes – they were on sale for $2.00 today at the store. Not as healthy as cooking your own but I figure after you add nearly a whole bag of brown sugar it’s not going to be healthy anyways 😉
This sounds delicious ! Found you from the country fair blog link up.
