Sweet potato casserole is a Thanksgiving staple recipe for many of us. Here are some new twists on the old favorite.


Sure, the sweet potato casserole topped with marshmallows gets a lot of attention this time of year. But why not switch things up a bit this year?

Try my Sweet Potatoes with Apples. Sweet potatoes are topped with graham cracker crumbs and apples in this casserole. This dish is so tasty, you'll never believe that it is packed with fiber, protein and vitamins.

Mashed Sweet Potatoes are elegant in their simplicity. With just a touch of brown sugar, this recipe really lets the sweet potatoes shine.

Savory White and Sweet Potatoes let you combine two dishes into one. This dish showcases the savory side of sweet potatoes.

White Potato and Sweet Potato Gratin is another savory take on sweet potatoes, but this version is more like a scalloped potato casserole.

And if you really want to go with something different this Thanksgiving, what about Sweet Potato Fries? The kids will love them, and you don't even have to buy marshmallows.
