A hearty and satisfying meal for the entire family to enjoy. This dish freezes well, so go ahead and double the recipe and freeze half for a future meal. Having a freezer full of already prepared meals makes for easy weeknight dinners. Feel free to substitute regular potatoes for the sweet potatoes if you wish.
