After trying this tasty side dish, I think you’ll agree that it is holiday-special. Sweet peaches and crunchy cashews really enhance the sweet potatoes.

I served this on Christmas and it quickly became a family fav. The combo of the peaches and sweet potatoes are delicious

I used pecans instead of cashews. Everyone at my dinner table was stating how yummy the dish was. Great recipe and it helped in filling the men.

This is a great dish with a twist! Our whole family enjoyed it. I would cut the peaches smaller next time though.

I have made this recipe for Thanksgiving dinner for years! I still get compliments from family members who eat it every year. I add extra peaches to satisfy my family's taste!
