Now we love the rutabagas, sometimes you have to acquire a taste for them. They're waxy on the outside, so kind of hard to peel, and really hard to cut in to pieces..But, you just peel, cut, cook until tender, then mash them with a lot of butter, salt and pepper..They're from the squash family I believe. When we first had them(tradition on his side), I wasn't too fond of them, but, now, I love them..

Sweet potatoe casserole

Bake potatoes first- I like to wrap in foil and bake them like you would a white potatoe for an hr or so. After they cool a bit the skin is easy to peel off and they are soft and ready to mush

Ingredients

1stick butter
1 T vanilla
3 cups sweet potatoes 9I buy 5 to 5 large sweet potatoes)
1/2 Cup sugar or splenda
2 beaten eggs or egg subsgtitute
1/4 cup evaporated milk

Topping
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 stick hard/cold butter
1/2 cup flour
1 cup nuts

Mix potatoes, sugar, vaanilla,evap. milk,eggs and butter. Pour in buttered casserole dish. In a separate bowl combine brown sugar,flour, butter and mix well to make crumbs. add pecans to the mix. Sprinkle on top of potatoe mixture and bake for 30 mins at 350 degrees

I made this recipe for a Christmas Luncheon one year at my church for the Sr Adult Ladies. I actually used canned sweet potatoes as opposed to cooking my own (I'm all for easy!) It got rave reviews and I felt honored knowing how many years of good cooking that has come from these ladies!

One thing that my family LOVES is squash pie. Make it exactly like pumpkin pie except use butternut or acorn squash. It has a slightly different flavor, but its really good!

Green bean casserole sounds good. Anyone have a recipe that doesn't use canned soup? Like all home made from scratch? I'm gluten free, cant use it.

1 cup dark brown sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup melted butter
1 cup chopped pecans
DIRECTIONS
In a large stockpot, cover sweet potatoes with 1 inch of water; boil for 20 minutes, or until fork tender. Drain, allow to cool and remove skins. (I peel mine before cooking)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease or butter one 2 quart casserole dish.
Place potatoes in a mixing bowl and with an electric mixer, beat on low speed until potatoes begin to break up. Increase speed to medium high and blend until smooth.
Reduce speed to low and add sugar, milk, butter, vanilla, eggs and salt. Mix well.
Allow any potato 'fibers' to remain on the beater and remove. Pour sweet potato mixture into the casserole dish.
Prepare the topping in a small bowl by whisking together the brown sugar, flour, butter and pecans. Sprinkle mixture over potato mixture and bake for 40 minutes.

That's the one I am doing. In fact, it's finished and in my freezer already!

My mom makes the best green bean casserole. If I can get the recipe out of her before Thanksgiving, I'll give it to you. I might not be able to, though because she's been busy with work. (she works for a card company; so, she's really busy this time of year.)

I can't wait for Thanksgiving now. I will have about 30 or so people coming so I have doubled and trippled some of the recipes. Many people are bring some things too so that will help
My only stress will be keeping everyone from trying to hold the little babies. I figure I will post a sign outside the nursery stating... PLEASE DO NOT DISTURB... Hopefully that won't seem rude! Yorkies first!!

YUM YUM!!!! I know it sounds kinda wierd, but it is sooooo good. And it's truly a southern recipes (North Carolina )

2 med. sized Sweet Potatoes, peeled and sliced
2 cups tart apples, peeled and sliced
2 cups mini-marshmallows
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup butter
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbs corn starch

Slice potatoes, put in 2 quart casserole, cover with apples and marshmallows. Mix dry ingredients and sprinkle over the top. Dot with butter.

COVER and bake 1hr at 325 degrees.

I usually double the sweet potatoes and apples, but keep everything else (except for the cinnamon, salt, corn starch) at the same amount. I add one cup sugar if the recipe is doubled. I don't like using soooo much butter so I found the 1/2 cup for the doubled ingredients is good!

Thanksgiving was a total success. I especially got rave reviews on the squash casserole!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!

[jasmanea]

I got a request to bring it for Christmas!!
