12 Sweet Potato Recipes for your Holiday Meals

Thanksgiving dinner wouldn't be dinner without sweet potatoes. Before I started cooking Thanksgiving dinner I wasn't a huge fan of sweet potatoes for holiday meals. I never liked the marshmallows on top or mixed with weird ingredients. My first Thanksgiving dinner that I cooked in New Orleans I made Praline Sweet Potato Casserole. That dish is now a family tradition and gets made every single Thanksgiving. Here is that recipe and 10 other sweet potato recipes worth checking out. If you need more sweets to go with your holiday meals then check out my 30 Days of Christmas Goodies.
