Just what I was looking for. Parents give me a big box of sweet potatoes in the autumn, and every year I attempt candied sweets like my Mom makes. This is it! Used brown sugar and added a splash of Jack Daniels. Not a nutmeg fan, so I substituted ground clove. Syrup was the perfect consistency after cooking according to this recipe. DH & I polished off the leftovers with breakfast this morning. Thanks for the recipe!

Yummy . . . yummy . . . yummy. The ultimate comfort food. Made it a one-pot meal (no need to bake) by cooking peppers, onions, and garlic in a large sauce pan first. Then cooked coarse ground grits ("Georgia ice cream") in the same pan with the sauted vegies. It's impossible to find a fresh shrimp in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains, so I thawed out cooked, shelled, deveined shrimp. Plucked the "stems" and zapped them in the microwave for a few seconds, topping the individual bowls of cheese grits with shrimp. The grits alone were divine for breakfast the following day.

This is really, really good. I added 3 tablespoons of Taco Seasoning I found on this site.
