You've done it again, Karen! Another great recipe! I never would have thought to pair up sweet taters and reg. spuds in a scallop dish, but, this is awesome. Really simple to fix and it went great with Mystergirl's Beef Paprika, #29950. Made a dandy supper! Thanks, Girl, we really enjoyed! Laudee

What a beautiful potato dish and just great for fall. I only used about 1 t. salt because my dad has to watch his salt intake. The cream sauce was rich and the parmesan cheese made a great topping. Thanks Karen.

Really enjoyed this potato dish, Karen. The two different potatoes went well together and made a beautiful appearance. The sauce was wonderful, too. The cayenne definitely gave it some POW. We like our salt so I didn't think 2 teaspoons was too much at all. Just depends on your personal taste for it. Thanks for the posting this recipe.

What a wonderful warm, satifying dish for the fall! I made this for pot luck at work and there wasn't any left!

These were nice tasting and cheesy and creamy. You could definitely pick up on the cayenne coming through, it had a little bite! I liked the combo of the potatoes with the sweet potatoes, they went well together, and gave a good color. I did cut back on the salt by half, as I thought it was a bit much. But overall, this was very nice and I could see it pairing with many different entrees. Thanks for the recipe, Karen!
