A fresh alternative to a classic Thanksgiving side dish. I do not take credit for this recipe, I did not create it. I found this recipe online years ago and have been making it ever since. I have used both Yams and Sweet Potatoes. Yams give a little more color contrast to the dish. This recipe can easily be made Vegan by omitting the butter :-)
