I will admit that I never was a fan of sweet potatoes until a few years ago. My wife made me this Yummy Sweet Potato Casserole one Thanksgiving and it has now become a tradition in our family.

One of the beauties of this amazing recipe is that it only requires a handful of ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry. Additionally, it only requires a half-hour of bake time!
