Sweet Potato Salad
Sweet Potato Salad
Ingredients
Substitution
Note
- 3 large sweet potatoes (~900g)
- 1 red bell pepper (diced)
- 2 celery stalks (chopped)
- 1/2 medium red onion (diced)
- Sauce:
- 1/4 cup safflower mayo
- 2 heaping tablespoons 2% greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- pinches of cumin (to taste)
- fresh orange juice (squeeze juice from a half an orange)
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary (optional)
- pinch of turmeric (optional)
- sea salt & pepper to taste
- Garnish:
- fresh chopped green onion
- 1/2 cup goat cheese crumble (or just to taste)
Steps
Step 1
Peel the sweet potatoes, then boil them until tender, about 12-15 minutes. Strain the potatoes and let them cool down to just about room temperature (can be warmer).
Step 2
In a bowl, mix together the ingredients for the sauce and season to taste with sea salt & pepper (or other spices if you want to make it your own).
Step 3
Chop the sweet potato into chunks.
Step 4
In a large bowl, add the sweet potato and chopped veggies and top with the sauce. Gently fold the ingredients together using a spatula.
Step 5
Serve warm or chilled. I recommend covering the salad and placing it the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving so all the flavors come together.
