After The Holiday Casserole W Pineapple Fresh Cranberries


From my aunt alta's recipe box, this was from an old newspaper clipping. If you don't have leftover sweet potatoes, you can mash up some freshly cooked ones or mash some drained canned ones. Remove any marshmallow toppings if you are using leftovers. Note: the sugar is present to tone down the tang of the fresh cranberries and to the sweet potatoes. I would imagine splenda could be used in its place. If you wish to use whole berry cranberry sauce (drained) that you already have prepared, i would suggest heavily reducing or possibly leaving out the sugar altogether, depending upon how sweet your leftover cranberry sauce is.
