Vegan Sweet Potato Souffle Recipe
This recipe is a family favorite. I'm the only vegan in my family, but I always have this requested for holidays and birthdays alike. It's really almost like a sweet potato cheesecake filling. I've found that fresh sweet potatoes result in a highly superior product than with canned sweet potatoes. If you love pumpkin pie or sweet potatoes give this recipe a try- trust me one bit and you'll be hooked!
