100% would make again

I took my mother's delicious sweet potato casserole recipe and gave it a new twist by adding the tempting taste of orange-a fruit very abundant in our state. The flavors are wonderful together and make this dish a family favorite.

I tried this recipe when I hosted my first all-family Thanksgiving dinner and they loved it. I tried another recipe the next year but they didn't like it as much. I have used this recipe every Thanksgiving for the past eight years.
