Notes
Your sweet potato might be a little over or under 1lb. That’s okay, use all of it.
I have found (and my family and friends agree) that the sour cream really takes the casserole up a notch. If you don’t have a sensitivity to dairy, please don’t forget to serve it with the sour cream. Soooo yummy!
This is a similar oven-proof dish to the one I use. It’s easy to clean and it’s big enough to feed a crowd.
