My first married Thanksgiving, I asked my mom what to bring to dinner. She said sweet potatoes. She probably thought I couldn’t mess those up, since I don’t like being held captive in the kitchen. I found this microwave recipe, and guess what? They liked it! I bring the same sweet potatoes to all holiday meals.
Hawaiian Sweet Potatoes
2 (1 pound) cans of sweet potatoes or yams (drained)
1 can (8 1/2 ounces) crushed pineapples
½ cup melted butter
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ cup brown sugar (packed)
½ cup chopped pecans – optional
Miniature marshmallows
Melt butter, drain sweet potatoes or yams, and cut into 1-inch pieces. Add sugars, pineapple and cinnamon. Microwave on high for 4 minutes; take out, stir and microwave 2 to 4 more minutes. I add marshmallows and put in the oven right after the turkey is removed from the oven and brown for a minute. Very sweet. Enjoy!
