I decided to take the old recipe to the next step and the additional items were fantastic choices!!!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Sweet potato casserole is the perfect side for Thanksgiving or Christmas. This recipe uses fresh sweet potatoes and slightly cuts back on the sweetness. We loved the oat topping. It's light, crumbly, crunchy, and super tasty.
