My aunt Nita loves to cook. It is not surprising see her make a sweet potato pie for the neighbors to thank them for their kindness. This recipe is a combination of recipes. It is bit of the classic mixed with the new. The orange juice in this recipe will brighten and enhance the flavors of the sweet potato. I hope you give it a try.
