sweet potato with cherries and salted pecans

Momma made this for me tonight. If I like it I sometimes will ask her to write out the recipe for me and I’ve got a big stack of index cards to show for it. Well tonight momma was so confident she didn’t even wait for the taste test, coming in with the plate *and* the card.

And she was right, I loved it. The cherries add a tangy little twist to one of my favorite veggies.
