I found a perfect sweet potato side dish for those with sweet tooth.
I don't know why, but I never thought of putting two of my favorite flavors: sweet potatoes and maple syrup, until I was trying to figure out a way to sweeten this dish without using sugar Yum...
It was so easy to prepare and it is so nutritious! It is a perfect side dish for red meat such as meat loaf, rack of lamb, filet mignon...etc.
Please try it at home!
