Notes
- When you first take the casserole out you’ll notice that there might be a bit of liquid in the dish, but let the casserole rest for 10 to 15 minutes, and the sweet potatoes will soak up all that liquid and all that’s left to do is eat!
- Store leftover potatoes in an airtight container in the fridge for 5 days.
