Sweet Potato Salad
This sweet potato salad is ready in twenty minutes. But this isn’t a raw vegetable salad — all the ingredients need to be cooked. But it’s all easy cooking, don’t worry.
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.
