Orange Glazed Sweet Potatoes With Pecans image

Here is a great holiday side dish! Of course it can be made and enjoyed any time. My mom makes this. I prefer to mash the potatoes somewhat coursely or lumpy rather than as smoothly as typical mashed potatoes.

These glazed potatoes were a hit at our Thanksgiving dinner! The orange glaze was perfectly sweet and tangy, and the pecans added a nice crunch. The potatoes were cooked to perfection, soft and fluffy on the inside with a crispy caramelized exterior.
