Two Potato Casserole












Can't decide between baking potatoes and sweet potatoes as a side dish? No need to worry since this casserole uses both for the nutritional benefits of each. Kraft Philadelphia cream cheese with milk makes a great sauce without adding a lot of fat. A layer of bread crumbs and parmesan cheese top off this wonderful side dish that is easy enough for a family night in but looks great enough for company!
