"One of the first dishes that I ever made. Not your traditional scalloped potatoes. This is an easy and tasty dish. My mom thought she hated sweet potatoes...it's been fun changing her mind."

This made a nice, very easy weeknight dinner. Really liked the sweet potatoes on top. Mine was sort of swimming in liquid and that may be because I used an 9x9 inch pan. Using a rectangular or oblong pan may be the thing to do. Thanks for sharing this unique recipe. I would make it again.

This was really good. I would have never thought of putting ground beef and sweet potatoes together. I had ground beef and sweet potatoes on hand, but no ideas for dinner. This recipe came up when I put in the ingredients. I did not have any green peppers so had to omit them. I also needed it to be gluten free so I used cornstarch instead of flour and wheat free soy sauce. Next time I will include the peppers. I bet peas would be a nice addition also. Thanks for a great recipe!

I made the recipe as directed using a 9x13 " baking dish. It was quite enjoyable . A very different, very tasty dish.

Yum. I LOVE sweet potatoes and am allergic to chicken, so I've been researching unique ground beef recipes. This is one of my favorites - a keeper. Making it again tonight. (Side note - my children complain about everything and although they like the flavor of the beef, they don't like the sweet potatoes.)

My family loves this! I think if I made two pans it would have been gone. It is like meat loaf with yummy sweet potatoes on it. I used 1 .5 lbs of hamburger. This is a keeper:)

This was different. It turned out a little too sweet for me. Very simple recipe, but for the trouble I would have preferred russet potatoes and gravy instead of sweet potatoes and brown sugar sauce.

I am a very lucky lady. I recently moved to a very small town in New Brunswick, Canada with my wonderful husband who is my best friend. Very fortunate to have a cherished son, wonderful daughter in law and adorable granddaughter and cute wee grandson. We are very blessed. A big thank you to everyone that has made my recipes... hope you enjoyed them.
