Brussel Sprouts & Sweet Potatoes

 CynBur (Florida) says:
This is a good recipe; the combination of flavors is spot on. However, when I made this to the letter before, the potatoes and sprouts were a little too al dente within the casserole. This time I seared them in the pan a little while longer, at the end, turned the broiler on for crispier sprouts. Love the butter and maple syrup sauce.
