A boat neighbor, Gene Boone, Suggested that this was a way he liked sweet potatoes. We had them with steak and salad. It was like having desert with the main course.

You can also place the filling into a casserole then spirinkle with the chopped nuts. Finish with a few extra pats of butter after you've taken it out of the oven.
