I made a sweet potato pie for the first time last month (first time
I'd tasted it too). I prefer pumpkin, but if I just wanted to make a
small one (I have a 7 inch pie pan), I'd use sweet potato again and
it's the perfect way to plump up those cans of pumpkin that are two
ounces lighter these days.
