Quick and easy. Marshmellows, sweet potatoes, apples, brown sugar and butter. I use a big 8 quart corningware dish, put a package of small marshmellows in the bottom, after spraying the dish with olive oil, cook the sweet potatoes in the microwave (like potatoes, 4 minutes each) peel and slice the potato into 1/4 inch slice. I usually grap 6-8 medium sized sweet potatoes (we raise them) and a quart jar of canned apples. You could use 5-6 fresh apples, sliced and put in with the dish raw. Cover with brown sugar a good 1/4 inch, and slice up a stick of butter and dot the top of the dish. Then you can put it into the oven at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes or microwave it. For my big dish, I used 18 minutes, stirred it, and gave it another 15 minutes. Main idea is to "candy" the sweet potatoes with marshmellows and brown sugar and butter. Apples add flavor, and you could add pecans or walnuts to the dish.
