SWEET POTATO TZIMMES



Sweet Potato Tzimmes image

"Tzimmes" is one of those Yiddish words that loses something in translation. It is probably best defined as confusion or a mishmash...which is probably where this casserole gets its name. This recipe can be made 2 days in advance; cover and refrigerate until ready to bake. You can vary the proportion of carrots to sweet potatoes.
