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.

Made this dish for our fall family party. I whipped the sweet potatoes after cooking them with the mixer. The flavor with just a little orange juice was wonderful. No left overs, and I am back today to reprint the receipe for Thanksgiving.

I mashed the sweet potatoes in my food processor to make them even creamier. I will add a little cinnamon next time. I loved the hint of orange and the eggs made it so light! Great recipe.

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.
