For me, the reason why they are so flavorful is that both the sweet potato and the topping are flavorful as opposed as only one of them. Keeping the sweet potato flavorful is what makes this recipe shine so much. The other great thing about them (besides the fact that they are mind blowing good and super versatile), is that they are really easy to whip up.

    1. As much bacon as you want. We love bacon at our house so I make a package and then we eat what we don’t use on the sweet potatoes.

  1. These are delicious and easy to make, as a single man of 65 who seldom cooks, I must agree with your comment “elevated to food stardom”
