Ruth’s Chris Sweet Potato Casserole

December 31, 2015 by hewella1

This year for Thanksgiving and Christmas, I made the Ruth’s Chris sweet potato casserole and it was a hit! I took it to both of my family gatherings and everyone commented on how great it was.

This is the best sweet potato casserole recipe I’ve ever had! The Ruth Chris sweet potato casserole recipe has pecans and brown sugar and you can even make ahead of your Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners! No marshmellows in this recipe!

 

 

I love that this recipe uses a crunchy pecan topping instead of the regular marshmallows. If you have never eaten at a Ruth’s Chris restaurant, you should try it.

Their food is amazing and this recipe is no exception. It is great for anytime of the year, not just holidays.
