Candied Yams are a delightful and comforting side dish, often found in Southern cuisine and enjoyed during holiday gatherings. Made from sweet potatoes, they are lovingly baked with rich brown sugar, warm spices like cinnamon and nutmeg, and sometimes topped with gooey marshmallows. While they offer a deliciously sweet treat, it's good to enjoy them in moderation, as the sugars can elevate the calorie count. However, sweet potatoes themselves are packed with vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants, making Candied Yams a dish that brings both warmth and nourishment to your table.
