Best Sweet Potato Shortcakes For Two Recipes
OLD-FASHIONED SHORTCAKE
This is a fabulous old-fashioned recipe given to me by a friend. It was her mother's recipe and it is the best shortcake. It sops up all the juice and the touch of nutmeg sends it over the top. My very favorite recipe for strawberry shortcake!

SWEET POTATO FOR TWO
Sweet potatoes are so underrated. They are so good for you and packed with fiber. I got tired of not being able to find a sweet potato recipe that is good for you and for 2 people. So I made this one night and it was delicious. Its easy and delicious. Goes great with seasoned baked chicken.
