Sweet Potato Casserole?
Oh, dear.
There’s always that one dish that our dear old auntie had to bring to the Thanksgiving table: the sweet potato casserole topped with marshmallows.
Can it be saved?
Or better, replaced?
Absolutely.
Using mashed yam (just bake in water until soft, cool and the skin will slide right off, then mash with a fork), a bit nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, clove & allspice, then topping with lightly toasted pecans, you’ll create a paleo – friendly starch that will pair perfectly with the turkey and all the other fixin’s!
Stay tuned for another version using the method above, adding apples and rosemary!
