A tasty side dish that's lighter than the autumn air
A mousse can be sweet or savory, like this lighter-than-air, sweet potato side. You can make it ahead of time and reheat in the microwave for a minute or two whenever you’re ready to serve! Here, we bake the sweet potatoes in 6-ounce soufflé cups. For a larger crowd, you can also use a gratin or casserole dish and bake for about 30 minutes! Add this simple side to your upcoming Thanksgiving menu for a new twist on sweet potatoes.
