Sweet, Savory + So Delicious!
When it comes to our holiday spreads, the main dish may be the star, but the sides are where we like to get creative! We curate various flavors and textures and ALWAYS include plenty of potato side dishes like today’s Candied Yams. In fact, we first tried these years ago at a restaurant and have wanted to share a copycat version ever since. We are so glad we are doing that now because we are officially obsessed and think you will be too. They’re sweet – savory – so delicious and the perfect addition to your Thanksgiving and Christmas spread. We love to make and serve these with any side, but especially love them with Honey Glazed Ham and Roast Turkey and hope you’ll love them as well.
