The ONLY candied sweet potato recipe you need for Thanksgiving ๐Ÿ 


Hi Reader,

I know it's only November 1st, but if you're anything like me, you're already starting to think about that menu. And let me tell you, this year, your sweet potato game is about to be NEXT LEVEL.

I have to share my Southern Candied Sweet Potatoes recipe with you. This has been one of my most popular recipes for years, and every November, readers tell me it's the dish that steals the show at their table.

Here's why people keep coming back to it:

โœจ They're buttery, perfectly sweet, and have that gorgeous caramelized glaze

โœจ You can make them ahead (yes, really!)

โœจ They're the side dish that people always ask for seconds of

โœจ Even people who say they "don't like sweet potatoes" love these

The key is getting that perfect balance of sweetness without going overboard, plus a cooking method that makes them tender but not mushy. Yay oven!

Want to see exactly how I make them? I've got a full-length cooking video that walks you through every step. We filmed it 5 years ago! I can't believe I've been making cooking videos for over 5 years. I hope you enjoy :)

smothered turkey wings on white plate

Hi Reader, Turkey has been on my mind a lot lately. Maybe it's because Thanksgiving is about a month away, or I just simply like turkey lol.

These wings are seasoned, roasted until golden, and then smothered in a rich, homemade gravy made from the pan drippings. They result in tender, fall-off-the-bone turkey with gravy so good you'll want to pour it over everything. Get this Recipe The process...
