Just tried this recipe. The sweet potatoes/yams were smaller than usual in the store and they were extra sweet so it made it taste even better. This was a great meal for something different.

This was great! Even my kids liked it and they are a tough crowd. I only used salt and pepper to season and next time I would probably use more sweet potatoes because I love them. A great recipe. I made this in the early in the afternoon and put it in the fridge, I added about 15 minutes to the bake time and it was perfect, we will definitely be having this again.
