Thanksgiving Recipe

I love taking meals or side dishes and turning them into appetizer recipes.  Because, I Love Appetizers!

These were a big hit at my house.  The tease of sweet potato casserole really got me craving a holiday feast!

The real question is, why do I only eat sweet potatoes during the holiday season?  I ask myself that every year!

Made with just sweet potato slices, sliced marshmallows and pecans.  This holiday appetizer is not only easy to make, it is much healthier than traditional sweet potato casserole.  Not that marshmallows are a health food.  But you get to ditch the butter and brown sugar.

What is your favorite side dish?  Is it sweet potato casserole or something else?

Maybe I’ll turn another Thanksgiving side dish into an appetizer recipe.

    Would these be ok to bake the day before serving?

      I think you could get away with pre-baking the sweet potatoes. Then just bake with the marshmallows and nuts before serving.
