Holiday Feast Side Dish Alert…
I love sweet potato casserole…I really do. Especially when there is a crunchy, nutty topping or layer in the dish. But what I don’t always love is the prep-work. If you’re hosting the holiday feast, it’s a flurry of madness getting everything ready and sometimes you just want simple and easy.
THIS.
Is simple and easy.
Slice the sweet potatoes. Roast them on a baking sheet with parchment paper. Glaze them. Polish off every last bite.
No peeling, no cutting into tiny pieces. Just 4-5 slices per sweet potato and boom…
This is what you’re left with…perfectly tender and delightfully flavored sweet potatoes!
