We enlisted one of our fave home cooks, Kim Hart, to reimagine the sweet potato casserole and did she deliver! It's simplicity is perfect for a busy day of cooking many dishes for a big gathering and it won't disappoint. 

"Looking for a healthier way to make a holiday classic? Sweet potato casserole is a staple at most holiday tables but can lose a lot of the nutritional value with lots of added sugar and butter. With a few simple ingredients and natural sweeteners from Just Date you don't have to feel guilty indulging in this yummy dish."
