YAMS AND CRANBERRY CASSEROLE

For this casserole, you can make it to fit your families needs. I call it my "throw together casserole" Make 3 to 4 layers in a casserole dish. Put a layer of sweet potatoes in the bottom of the dish, then put a layer of nuts, raisins, cranberrys, brown sugar and then the small marshmallows. Keep doing this until you have the casserole the size you would like ending with a layer of sweet potatoes on top. Put in the oven at 350 for about 30 to 45 min. Take out and let cool just a bit. Then cover the top with the small marshmallows put back in over and lightly brown on top.....You can also make this up the day before, just put the marshmallows on the day you are going to reheat it.
