Sweet Potato Souffle
I hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Ours was very nice - we shared a Thanksgiving meal with our "military family" aka our neighbors. :) We had great fellowship, great food, and we played a game that is now one of my favorites- Apples to Apples. It was so much fun to play with a crowd, and it kept us laughing, that's for sure!
This sweet potato souffle is a recipe that my Mema passed to my Mom and me. We have it on Thanksgiving every year, and even though I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes, my hubby loves them, so I knew I should make them this year for him and our other friends to enjoy. I wish I could scrape the topping onto my plate and enjoy that! ;)
(I know you can only see the topping of this dish in the picture above. This was something I was bringing to someone else's home, so I couldn't really scoop some out to take a picture of, lol. I trust you all know what mashed sweet potatoes look like; just imagine some underneath that topping.)
Here are some pics of our little sweetie on her first Thanksgiving:
