Super Simple Recipe - Sweet Potato Casserole

We received a HUGE box of {sweet potatoes} during Thanksgiving from my mom's significant other. Of course, we don't want them to go to waste so I planned some wonderful recipes that I am going to try so that we can get the maximum use out of these glorious potatoes.

We made this {yummy} sweet potato casserole last night and there was so much left over, we will be enjoying it with dinner again tonight. And guess what? I don't mind!
