  1. With a couple changes, these were delicious and very well received around the table. My teenage son prepared these for dinner last night. We reduced the orange juice to 1/3 cup, and that was plenty. We reduced the nutmeg to 1/4 teaspoon. My son inadvertently mixed the pecans into the mashed potatoes before baking, but that gave them more texture and flavor throughout. These perfectly offset a crunchy garlic chicken entree. A very good twist on sweet potatoes, indeed. We enjoyed these a lot!
     
  2. The orange juice-nutmeg combination was overpowering.I guess it wasn't what I was expecting. Also I had to substitute walnuts for pecans, it would be better with the pecans.
     
  3. Made this as a side dish for dinner and it was quite good. I did substitute milk for the oj and cinnamon for the nutmeg. Great make ahead. Thanks for posting.
     
  4. This was served on my Christmas dinner menu. Loved the orange flavor, but I think I'll try a crunchy,brown sugar topping with the pecans for a little more texture, next time.
     
  5. For a variation of this dish, we used to put the mixture in orange peel cups and top with a marshmallow. Delicious and so pretty
