It would not be Thanksgiving or Christmas at Sweets & Eats without Sweet Potato Casserole; and thanks to my best friend and her mother, we have a great recipe. It is one of those sides that you eat with everything else but then you wonder-- is it a dessert? It is creamy, sweet and topped with a wonderful streusel. I will eat it either way-- it's just good!
