not good
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I ruined some beautiful sweet potatoes on this one. I agree with those that have said that the banana, orange, and chicken... stock flavos really clashed.Read more

family recipe
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We use more butter and heavy cream,we also bake the potatoes whole then peel and mash them, place in large retangle baking... pan, top with small marshmellows and brown in oven till marshmellows are lightly browned. This is a table favorite for the picky kids who dont eat anything. Caution dont get it too sweet the orange juice is sweet.Read more

I didn't like Sweet Potatoes until Today!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Not a sweet potato person, but now things have changed. Used 1/3 cup brown sugar (not 1/2 cup) Used milk instead of... chicken stock Used a frozen banana (really ripe) Something about the banana/sweet potato combo that makes this recipe a knock out! Read more

This was Great!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I loved this recipe and have passed it around to a few of my co-workers and family. However, instead of using chicken... stock, I used the heavy whipping cream and eyed the amount I put in so as not to make it soupy. I also added a couple of dashes of cinnamon and no salt. Read more

I just made this to go along with our Easter Ham and the whole family loved it! You cannot beat the fresh nutmeg and banana... mixed in. I'm so glad you do what you do Rachael! Mauzz~Read more
