Orange Scalloped Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients

2 medium sized sweet potatoes,
   cooked, peeled and sliced
2 large oranges, 1 peeled and sliced,
   the other used for the peel
   and juice
1 Tbsp. grated orange peel
2 Tbsp. sugar
2 Tbsp. butter or Earth Balance
1/3 cup of orange juice
salt (to taste)

How we make it

Peel and cook the sweet potatoes.
   (Once the water is boiling only
   cook the potatoes for about 15
   minutes, so they are still some-
   what firm enough to slice.
Allow them to cool and thin slice them.

Meanwhile, grate the peel from one
large orange so that there is about 1 Tbsp.

Peel and slice the other large orange
cross-ways.

Place a layer of sweet potatoes in a
"greased" oven-safe casserole dish or glass
baking pan. Add a layer of orange slices.
Sprinkle with orange peel, salt and sugar
and dot with a little of the Earth Balance
or butter.

Repeat the process until all ingredients are
used. Pour the orange juice over the top.
Cover the dish and bake at 350 degrees F.
for 46 minutes to 1 hour.

Makes 4 servings.
