Since I didn't get back to add more side dishes last week, I will post them as this week's recipe. The first is a simple, delicious way to make sweet potatoes. The second is my grandma's recipe which is a different take on cranberry sauce.
Sweet Potato Casserole
3 baked sweet potatoes or 2 small cans canned sweet potato
1/2 c sugar
2 eggs, beaten
2 Tbs butter / margarine
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp cinnamon
Topping:
3/4 stick butter / margarine
1 c brown sugar
1/2 to 1 c nuts (pecans or walnuts)
1. Mash the potatoes then mix in remaining casserole ingredients.
2. Pour into greased casserole dish.
3. Topping: Melt butter. Mix in remaining topping ingredients and spread over potato mixture.
4. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
This recipe can easily be doubled in a 9x13 inch pan. Cooking time should remain about the same.
