    This recipe is definitely a keeper. I have always loved the traditional sweet potato casserole with the marshmallows; however this year I was looking for an alternative without all of the fat and sugar. So I tried this recipe. All I can say is...absolutely delicious. The guests gobbled it up and even had seconds and thirds. No one really seemed to miss the butter and sugar. There was plenty of flavor in this casserole. The only change I made was the addition of a teaspoon of vanilla extract, and I left off the salt. This recipe is also very easy to make which is a plus. I would give it 6 stars if I could. I will definitely be making this again.

    This was a big hit for Thanksgiving. I followed the recipe exactly and baked it in a 9 by 13 casserole dish. I will definitely make this again but next time I think I will add just a little more chopped pecans.

    Very delicious and so easy to make. This was a big hit at my Thanksgiving dinner! I added about a cup of pecans instead of the 1/3 cup the recipe calls for. I know...it sounds like a lot, but my family loves pecans so there were no complaints! Absolutely delicious!

    I lost my sweet potato casserole recipe a couple of years ago and have been trying to recreate it ever since. This one is as good or better than my old receipe. I did one thing in addition to the Food Network recipe. I thought the topping looked a little dry during cooking so I melted a half stick of butter and poured over the topping. It turned out great!

    This was the highlight of our Thanksgiving spread. Two people left with the recipe in hand. It's amazing that it tastes so flavorful but has about half the calories and fat of every other sweet potato casserole recipe I could find. I did take other reviewers' suggestion of doubling the topping. Most importantly, I do not have a steamer basket, so I just covered the cubed potatoes with cold water and then brought them to a light boil for about 15-20 minutes. Will definitely make again, and not just for Thanksgiving.

    I made this for Thanksgiving and the aroma of this dish was wonderful. My family and I thought this was the best dish on the table. Will keep this recipe and make it again! Absolutely wonderful!

    I know it's unconventional, but if you're pressed for time, how much canned sweet potatoes do you think would you need to use? Thanks
