Orange-Ginger Sweet Potato Casserole
This is my version of a traditional Thanksgiving favorite. I love sweet potatoes, but find I don’t need any sweetener, so I substituted orange juice. You’ll find yourself serving this casserole quite often! You can cut the prep time on serving day by cooking the sweet potatoes up to two days in advance; simply remove their skins and store in the fridge in an airtight container until needed.
