American Sweet Potato Pudding
"Saw this being made on Huey's Cooking Adventures and well I love sweet potato recipes though I plan on fiddling with it a little to bring the sugar content down and make more diabetic friendly but for now posting as Huey stated. Though Huey didn't do this I couldn't see why you could not make a meringue out of the egg whites and swirl on the top and return to the oven for a few minutes to brown and cook. Times are estimated."

What a great way to enjoy sweet potatoes! I did use Splenda Brown Sugar Blend instead of the regular BS, but other than that, I stuck to the recipe! Very, very good with a bit of frozen yogurt! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my groupmates in the Aus/NZ Recipe Swap #34]

With the demise of the forums and with no more interaction on site with what was a great community and it was a pleasure to get to know so many of you over the years and to have had the privilege of meeting some of you in person. For me now this is just another recipe site like to many on the net, it has lost its specialness, such a pity especially when Scripps changed the name from Recipezaar to Food.com and made this statement sorry cannot replicate here as considered invalid but they basically said yes the community was valuable hence .com was short for community but it was a pack of lies as they were not willing to put the money into that community and got rid of the forums which was the community so for .com has become .crap.
