    I'm gonna make a couple of them for Thanksgiving dinner this year. I usually do two pies at once, and just double everything and use the large can of sweet potatoes instead, its really handy, because those Pilsbury crusts come 2 in a package anyway.

    Sweet Potato Pie???

    Never heard of such a thing, which means I have to try it.

    Now I'm off to buy some sweet potatos.

    I am going to attempt to make this "low-fat" by useing egg beaters, fat free sour cream, and no crust....Like a custard instead of a pie. It sounds like there is enough flavor in it that the "fat" won't be too missed! I think I will try to do that BEFORE Thanksgiving though.....so if it is not great, I can make the regular version for guests.

    Don't skip the fat, it tastes funny without it.

    Then again, I don't like "low fat". I buy 80% ground beef...

    I have to say that this recipe is ideal for me, because lately, I have been buying regular sweet potatoes from the produce section, and for myself---they are really tough to peel. I really like the idea that we can use the canned variety to make this pie!

    I boil or steam mine first. Skin comes right off. My mother would turn in her grave if she thought I was using canned potatoes!

    Duh....why did *I* think of that?

    I have to admit that I have used the canned ones in a recipe I used to fix years ago...for a sweet potato pudding....and nobody complained that I hadn't used "real" potatoes when they were all gobbling it up, LOL! It was ALWAYS a big hit with my kids!
