♥ APPLESAUCE & RAISIN SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE YOUR FAMILY WILL LOVE ♥

In getting ready for Thanksgiving, my family wants sweet potatoes along with, mashed potatoes, stuffing, turkey, ham, cranberry sauce, corn, and of course...dinner rolls. I'm not a sweet potato person but I'm out numbered. My mom made them for Thanksgiving for my dad, so I decided to use this recipe below this evening as a test run using my husband as a guinea pig. My husband ♥ LOVED IT! ♥ I must admit, my taste buds must have changed because this is really good. Below is the recipe. Eat & Enjoy!

1/4 cup packed brown sugar
