Here’s a tasty, starchy side that hits both sweet and spicy notes. You'll find yourself serving it at every festive holiday party you throw. It's also delicious enough to potentially earn a spot on your Thanksgiving table; we're that confident in it. Just be sure to finely chop the pecans to help evenly spread them throughout the dish to get a little crunch in every bite. The only other ingredients you need are sweet potatoes, light brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, butter, and salt. The potatoes take about an hour to soften completely, so you can get those going while you prep your entrée.
