Sweet Potato Salad – Cookout Worthy
FitMenCook
My name is Kevin. My life changed when I realized that healthy living is truly a lifelong journey, mainly won by having a well-balanced diet and enjoying adequate exercise. By experimenting in the kitchen and openly sharing my meals, I learned that healthy eating is hardly boring and that by making a few adjustments, I could design a diet that could help me achieve my personal fitness goals. Our bodies are built in the kitchen and sculpted in the gym.

Ingredients
Ingredients for 6 servings
- 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into 2-inch – 3-inch chunks
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 1/2 large red onion, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 2 tablespoons chopped dill
- 3 whole eggs (or 1 cup firm tofu), chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1/3 cup olive oil mayonnaise or vegan mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon The Fit Cook Southern Creole Cajun seasoning
- sea salt & pepper to taste
Steps
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, add peeled chunks of sweet potato and cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until the potatoes are firm yet can be pierced with a fork.
- Once they are finished, place them in an ice bath or place them in a strainer and run cold water over them to stop them from cooking further.
- Once the potatoes have cooled close to room temperature, add the remaining ingredients to the mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly and ensure every ingredient is lightly coated.
- Season to taste with sea salt & pepper. Cover and place in the fridge to chill for at least 2 hours before enjoying.
