In an effort to eat healthier, I modified a family favorite so we could still enjoy it. The rest of the family couldn't even tell the difference! ;) My changes cut the calories by over 220 per serving (based on 6 servings) and the fat by over 50%!!! If you make it as written, 1/6 = 6 pts WW or 1/8 = 5 pts WW Ingredients:
3 cups mashed sweet potatoes (well drained, mashed canned ones are fine) |
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
1/3 cup sugar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons melted light butter |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1/4 cup brown sugar |
2 1/2 tablespoons flour |
1/2 cup chopped pecans or 1/2 cup walnuts |
1 1/2 tablespoons melted light butter |
Directions:
1. Mash the sweet potatoes with ricer and stir in remaining casserole ingredients until well blended.
2. Spread into a lightly greased 8-inch square dish.
3. For the topping, mix the brown sugar, flour and pecans together. Drizzle the melted butter over the mixture while stirring to combine. Sprinkle over casserole.
4. Bake uncovered at 350°F for 35 minutes.
5. Can be served immediately, but we have found we like it better if it sets 10-20 minutes first.
