White Potatoes or Sweet Potatoes? Why not both?

I’m planning my family’s feast for Thanksgiving this year and one of our big debates is about the potatoes…regular potatoes or sweet potatoes?

My family is divided on favorites, but with such a small crowd I’m not going to make two separate dishes.  Instead we will have a dish that has both and enjoy them in a more healthy way.  I like to roast both together with some diced onions and thyme for added flavor!
