This was a new and yummy side dish for summer grilling. I will definitely make again, I think it would be a great change of pace to bring to a bbq. I did halve the amount of sugar and it was still plenty sweet, will considered reducing even more in the future. Also, I think the ratio of fruit to pasta could be higher and will probably add more next time.

Tasty, simple and not too sweet. A great recipe and one I will use again.

Super easy to make - I put it in before guests arrived for Christmas dinner and then just had to stir every half-hour. It's a bit too sweet, so I would use less sugar (probably only half). Still, it's definitely a keeper.

My FIL is diabetic and I wanted a dessert he could enjoy for Christmas, but I was sooo nervous about this because I've never made a pie before and without the sugar I just wasn't sure how this would turn out. I had no need to worry, this pie was simple and tasted delicious. Without the extra sugar, all the flavor of the apples really comes out. I tried half Granny Smith and half Golden Delicious, but since my husband said he liked the sweeter pie (he was the only one) I might try all sweet apples next time. BTW, I tried the variation one of the other reviewers suggested... not pre-cooking the apples and sauce and baking the pie for 1 hour. I was happy with the firmness of the apples but the sauce just cooked in a big clump on the bottom. From now on I will at least thicken up the sauce before pouring over the apples and baking.

An excellent alternative to the traditional, overly sugared sweet potato recipes you usually see (especially for the holidays). The cardamom adds an interesting flavor and you can really taste the sweet potatoes. I made most of this ahead of time for Christmas dinner, reheated the potatoes in the oven and then fried the shallots to add right before we sat down - a huge time saver! Next time I will try "mashing" the potatoes in the food processor to get them extra creamy.

Mmmm-mmmm, these are the softest chocolate chip cookies I've ever made... just like the Soft Batch ones. I will definitely use this recipe again. Thanks!
