So, one year for Thanksgiving, Cristin tried a sweet potato casserole recipe that called for orange juice and no one liked the flavor combination. With this in mind, I decided to omit the orange juice from this recipe. Everyone loved the roasted sweet potato. The fresh green onions, ginger and mustard gave them a jazzy zing.
Also, 35 minutes was too long - I set the timer for 30 and when I checked on them they were starting to burn just a touch. Delicious!
