The delightfully orange sweet potato (or "yam," as it's sometimes called) is a winter essential. With more nutrition value than a normal potato, it's perfect when mashed, baked, roasted, candied, or even in potato salad. It makes some of the simplest soup you'll ever have, and may be the only vegetable that pairs so well with marshmallows!
"Tasty and healthy. I followed the directions except for the white wine. Very different and of course, slightly sweet. Very good with crusty bread. The second bowl I added some hot sauce, YUMMY!"

"I was never a big fan of sweet potatoes, but this recipe fixed that. I used all pecans and I used a little more butter in the topping."
-Dr.JenLeddy
"This delicious souffle is perfected with a carrot and pecan topping."

"A stunning addition to the Thanksgiving table, this bundle of rose-shaped sweet potatoes will enliven the holidays."
"Perfectly moist with just the right amount of sweetness. Baked beautifully, nice and dense. DH nearly ate an entire loaf in one day! This will be the perfect bread for holiday gift giving."
-Hadice
"Yummy! Goat cheese and sweet potatoes were meant for each other. I used all ricotta and it was quite cheesy and flavorful."
-Maito

-Gwanny Hill
"These low-fat, low-sugar muffins are very good. I'm looking forward to making these again, with the addition of some golden raisins or dried cranberries to boost the flavor a bit."

"This turned out great! I added brown sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon, just for taste preferences. This will be the pie I bring to the holidays."
-Robyn's Kitchen

-Mama Wendy

-icanhavefun
"These are so addictive! I used a mandoline to slice them thin, used a mister for the olive oil and added just a little salt to them."
-Marg (CaymanDesigns)
"This is a nice change of pace from banana and pumpkin breads. I cut the sugar a little and it was still plenty sweet."
-worldmom12
"This was a very different but great dip. It's easy and so healthy. All the flavors really go well together. We ate it with pita chips."

-Thorsten
"I normally like my sweet potatoes crispy (as in fries), but this recipe changed my mind. These are flavorful and make for a great side."
-LifeIsGood
These sweet potatoes were just what I was looking for. Had baked salmon and wanted an easy way to fix sweet potatoes. My husband loved them. They were delicious!"
-Carole in Orlando

"These patties made for a special treat. I liked the combo of brown rice and sweet potato. These are certainly something I'll make again."
-Sydney Mike
"Made these exactly as directed, minus the nuts as I did not have any in hand. They are delicious! Great texture, slightly dense but still very moist and soft in the middle. Thanks!"
-mamafoxthomson
"We really enjoyed the rosemary-and-Parmesan combo on these. I like that these are healthier than regular potato skins."
-Debbwl
"This is such a comfort food! I pan fried them since I don't have a deep frier and that worked very well -- crispy outside and smooth and creamy inside! I loved the honey! They did really well reheated for breakfast (in the microwave). Thanks for posting Little! [Made for Veggie Swap January 2009]"
-SarahBeth
"These are the best latkes I've ever made. The recipes I've used in the past (at least 3 others over the past 30 years) were okay, but they didn't have that perfect blend of soft potato mush in the middle and crispy outsides. This recipe has both, and good flavor."
-Is it Tasty
"Everyone loved these. I think using fresh sweet potatoes is key in the way these taste. I doubled the sauce and sprinkled with pecans."
-Chef #603251
"I never thought I would enjoy cheese with sweet potatoes, but this was outrageously delicious. It's going into our regular recipe rotation."
-Bluemonkey
"I cooked this in a covered cast-iron skillet and the onions caramelized along with the lightly glazed potatoes. They were a real hit."
-PaulaG
"These were really good! It was so easy to prepare, yet fancy enough to serve to company."
-ashlynn08
"This is a great side! I served these with a creamed horseradish sauce for dipping, which adds a tang."
