Servings 2 people

Ingredients
  

  • 2 sweet potatoes peeled diced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 150 grams bacon diced
  • 2 cups herbed croutons (see notes after the recipe)
  • parsley snipped

For the lime and honey dressing

  • juice of two limes
  • extra virgin olive oil enough to equal the volume of lime juice
  • honey to taste
  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375F.
  • Toss the sweet potatoes with the salt and olive oil. Spread in a baking pan and cook in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes.
  • While the sweet potatoes cook, heat a frying pan and cook the bacon in it until lightly crisp.
  • When the bacon and croutons are done, make the dressing. Just mix all the ingredients together.
  • When the sweet potatoes are done, toss with the bacon, croutons and some parsley.
  • Drizzle with the lime and honey dressing and serve.

Notes

If you don’t have prepared herbed croutons, you can throw in day-old bread in the rendered bacon fat, drizzle the bread with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and dried herbs, and make your herbed croutons right there.
