My mother-in-law would make the most wonderful sweet potato casserole. I would look forward to it every holiday season and hope there were leftovers for the next week. The moment they touched your lips you tasted sweet, sugary, dreamy almost dessert-like potatoes.
Now, unfortunately, I am not able to eat that dreamy side dish. But if you’ve been looking for a dairy-free, healthier version try this recipe. It has become my new go to.
