CORE Candied Sweet Potatoes

[plcm111195]

I came across this on the WW site and thought it might be good for the holidays. I ran it through the recipe builder and it came out to 2 points per serving. That's the first time I used the recipe builder, it doesn't give you the actual nutritionals, just the points. :(

Ok, if this tastes are awesome as it smells when I am putting it together, I am in for a real treat! I will check back after I eat. :D

This was just awesome! DH and I ate it up and realized we were so full that we did not even need an afternoon snack.

However, the one thing I will change next time is to add another can of pineapple and add a touch of nutmeg and salt. I also overestimated and will cut the serving size to 4 instead of 3.

Thanks, Joanne! This was fab! :bcbsalute :buddysmoo

I AGREE!

This is Good Stuff! :D

I packed it in very small Gladware containers for DH to add to his brown bag lunches. It's like dessert! :bcbsalute
