CANDIED SWEET POTATOES WITH PECANS
This is my favorite style of a Thanksgiving or Christmas time sweet potato side dish, since I'm not really a big fan of whipped sweet potatoes with marshmallow toppings. This is a very sweet dish (candied) but more to my liking. The spice and pecans add a whole new level of taste and texture.
