Sweet potatoes can be made into so many different side dishes. Here is a collection of recipes that are perfect not only for Thanksgiving, but for any dinner menu.

Sweet potatoes are a versatile ingredient that can be made into so many things. They are a staple on many Thanksgiving tables, but they don’t have to be limited to the holiday table.
Here are great recipes that turn our favorite orange vegetable into fabulous side dishes that we will want to have time and again.
I have a bit of a sad story to tell. I love sweet potatoes, but my husband and Little Dude do not. I know, heartbreaking…
But that does not mean I don’t make them. To the contrary, that just gives me a challenge to find a way to fix them that they enjoy.
If they don’t happen to love a certain preparation, that just means more for me! That’s not really the worst outcome in the world.

Sweet potatoes are a naturally sweet vegetable that are high in fiber, various vitamins and minerals. They are actually members of the morning glory family. Strange, huh?
They are especially known for their high vitamin A content. One sweet potato can give you up to 400% of your recommended daily value.
So it is worth the effort to find recipes we all enjoy. As I continue to search for the right ones to get the boys to like them, I am loading up on my vitamins!
Of course we always make a sweet potato dish or two for Thanksgiving. It just wouldn’t be a complete menu without them.
My sister requires the marshmallow covered candied sweet potatoes to be happy. My grandpa prefers sweet potato casserole with pecans on top.
We are a group of people pleasers and I am not the only one in my family who loves through food. So we make both… and any other requests we hear along the way!
But sweet potatoes do not have to be reserved for Thanksgiving. In fact, I think we should make an effort to enjoy them all year long!
So here is a collection of recipes that will help keep us all interested in more sweet potatoes!
