Submitted by Tese3068

"This is such an easy and delicious side dish. Sweet and savory, it compliments poultry or vegetarian fare. If you don't have sweet potatoes but do have squash, you can still make this dish."

I really do love sweet potatoes, & am happy to make them often, not just for the winter holidays, & this recipe makes for some REALLY GREAT TASTING SWEET POTATOES! The only change I made was to leave them unpeeled, 'cause I like that part of them as well! The potatoes, along with the cranberries & thyme, made for a very satisfying dish! Thanks for the great recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in this Spring's Pick A Chef]
