HOLIDAY SWEET POTATO, PEACH AND CASHEW BAKE/CASSEROLE

Holiday Sweet Potato, Peach and Cashew Bake/Casserole image

A favorite at our Thanksgiving table every year. Add marshmallows if you like. Versatile recipe- - you can vary the spices and type of nut used. One of my family's favorite variations is cinnamon or allspice in place of the ginger, with a splash of brandy, finely minced orange zest, a few tablespoons peach preserves, and a sprinkling of Sweet & Spicy Pecans, recipe #117774. Adapted from Better Homes and Gardens All-Time Favorite Recipes.
