Sweet Potato Pineapple Casserole image

Pineapple, sugar and marshmallows lend a super sweetness to sweet potatoes. I've been making the casserole for years, both for special occasions at home and for casual dinners. Everyone deceided it was to be added to the list of family favorites. I would love to hear any improvements and/or variations you make to this simple recipe. Enjoy!
