The theme for this recipe swap was Thanksgiving sides- oh the possibilities! I submitted the recipe for burgundy mushrooms, and I received this recipe from Jessica at The Jey of Cooking. I love sweet potatoes and was excited to test this recipe out on my family. I made a few modifications to the original recipe by adding blue cheese, bacon, and green onion. The great thing about this recipe is you can add any toppings you want, or keep it simple and serve them straight up. Checkout my fellow swappers at A Taste of Home Cooking! Thank you for the great recipe Jessica!
We closed on the house last night! Official homeowners!!! Let the moving begin!
