Sweet potatoes are a staple at a lot of American Thanksgiving and Christmas meals. Sweet potato casserole or sweet potato pie especially. As for me, I used to just bake one for dinner and put a little cinnamon on it.

My favorite way to have them is just baked with a bit of butter. Simple, plain, and really good.
