Source: All recipes.com

You know that awesome dish that we eat on Thanksgiving with the marshmallows, sugar, butter, milk, and goodness?  Yes, I was craving something like  that but didn't want to use those ingredients.  Not that they don't taste amazing but that is a dish you eat once a year.  This dish has that same sweet flavoring but with out the extra pounds that you gain that time of year.  I didn't have walnut oil so I used olive oil and sprinkled raw walnuts in the dish before baking.    

This recipe is great for anyone with digestive complaints specifically nausea, vomiting, and constipation. This would be a great dish for the first trimester of a pregnancy if someone is experiencing a  lot of morning sickness, in that case, add more Cardamom. Sweet Potato also treat excessive thirst, and weak kidneys.  With its action on the kidneys, men with premature ejaculation or impotence problems would benefit with sweet potatoes.

• 3 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
