OH, WOW!!! This is the best ever way to eat sweet potatoes. I hate ruining the flavor and healthiness of sweet potatoes by adding all that sweet, sugary stuff. This is sweet potato and garlic Heaven!! I made this last night to go with baked pork chops. This is a great side dish for ANY meal (and also a good snack (as evidenced by not one bite remaining Hey when the midnight munchies attack, this makes a better snack than potato chips or nachos anyday!!! Will definitely be making again!!! Thank you Charlotte!! ~Manda

I served these with Salmon that I bake in foil with tomatoes. Everyone loved them, except they were a bit dry at first. I used margarine instead of butter, maybe that was why. Anyway, I added a bit more margarine and some 1% milk. Great alternative to just baking them and serving like traditional baked russet potatoes, and also to mashed white potatoes which my husband is not allowed to eat. Will definitely make this recipe again. Thanks for posting. I would never have thought to pair sweet potatoes with garlic.

I couldn't agree more CHarlotte. HATE sweet potatoes all sugared up, but LOVE them savory. I made these for dinner along with breaded pork chops and it was fantastic! I followed the directions exactly except that I used seasoned salt instead of regular. I will make this often.

Yummy. I added some coconut milk to mash them with just because I had a teeny bit left in the fridge- made them yummy and rich! I improvised with this because I only had one sweet potato on hand, and besides, I'm the only one here! Surprisingly delicious unusual combination - I wish that I had added even more garlic!

-Same here. I hate sugared up sweet potatoes. I received some from my aunt and was trying to find a way to cook them that I would like, so I tried this recipe. They turned out great and I used the whole bag. I didn't think I would use any of them. Thanks.

Very good. I used a tbsp. herb and garlic cream cheese in this to make it a little moister. Great side dish with meatloaf.

This was really good and easy to make. The garlic flavor was very subtle, but in combination with the butter was delicious. Thank you for something to do with the lowly sweet potato besides fries and the sweet casserole.
