Baked Sweet Potato
with Walnut Sage Topping

Sweet potatoes are a Thanksgiving and holiday table tradition. Their sweet and nutty notes when served with savory turkey are a flavorful symphony, especially with the addition of walnuts or pecans. My son, Joshua, loves sweet potatoes however I prepare them. His first question, “Are you making sweet potatoes?” Naturally this follows, “Please make pumpkin cheesecake, but with raw, organic cream cheese, please?” What can I say, kids keep you on your toes!
