Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes offer tender buttery mashed sweets with a touch of cinnamon. Top them off with pecans and drizzled honey. A great addition to your #HolidaySideDishes list!
Today starts our Holiday Side Dishes week from our Festive Foodies bloggers. We will be sharing some fun side dish ideas on 11/2, 11/4 and 11/6!
Thanks Heather from Hezzi D’s Books and Cooks for hosting our event!
Side dishes make our holidays special. Those tasty treats we only get a few times a year.
Some people look forward to green bean casserole. Others love heaping piles of garlic mashed or Mom’s giblet stuffing. I like experimenting with sweet potatoes.
This year I made Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes.
I think these are a keeper!
