This was very good. Can't believe it's only 260 calories!<\/p>","CommentId":8,"DateRated":"11\/30\/2011 20:01","GUID":"10b8047436fc4bcfaaebd35c145664be","MemberId":4180670,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"indyhannah1","SubmittedDate":"11\/30\/2011 20:00"},{"Comment":"

I have made this twice now, and will definitely make it again. I used an egg substitute as well, and also left out the coconut. I baked the potatoes in the oven and put the filling in an 8x10 baking dish rather than refilling the skins and it worked great!<\/p>","CommentId":9,"DateRated":"11\/25\/2011 18:08","GUID":"285e11c72edc4dd08a41fd3daa5120d9","MemberId":1370160,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"jodij99","SubmittedDate":"11\/25\/2011 18:08"},{"Comment":"

I loved this recipe! I left out the coconut to satisfy my husband. I can't wait to take it to Thanksgiving this year!<\/p>","CommentId":10,"DateRated":"11\/22\/2011 10:15","GUID":"F13E1A397EE342A98297FDA3DFDF986E","MemberId":2810972,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"foodfave","SubmittedDate":"11\/22\/2011 10:14"},{"Comment":"

Adjusted this using egg substitute and omitted the pecans. It was excellent-both kids and adults loved it.<\/p>","CommentId":11,"DateRated":"11\/18\/2011 13:01","GUID":"bfe32e19516942be90acee169a865698","MemberId":1617915,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"merrygraham","SubmittedDate":"11\/18\/2011 13:01"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":12,"DateRated":"11\/17\/2011 00:42","GUID":"4b1181d3f4f44accabef2ccd1b108a8c","MemberId":6343736,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"bubba666","SubmittedDate":"11\/17\/2011 00:42"},{"Comment":"

I normally don't like sweet potatoes. This was AWESOME and has now been added to my Thanksgiving menu. I did, however, use half and half instead of the apple juice!

Awesome. I only made two potatoes one with only pecans and one with the brown sugar topping. I also cut the butter in the filling to 1 tbsp. Will make again!<\/p>","CommentId":14,"DateRated":"10\/19\/2011 08:13","GUID":"645f01887671439cbad9d91e123dc898","MemberId":1593546,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"kay52178","SubmittedDate":"10\/19\/2011 08:13"},{"Comment":"

This is great tasting. Not hard to put together either. My whole family loved this. I will definitely make again. I did half the recipe though to accommodiate my family of 4.<\/p>","CommentId":15,"DateRated":"10\/09\/2011
