Sweet Potato Salad.........

[JLMom]

Yum...yummmmmmmmmmmmm......yummmmmmmmmyyyyyyy! I use all organic ingredients but obviously it can be made without. I served this with organic Chicken sausage flavored with lime and we splurged on some Garden Salsa Sun Chips to go with it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 1/2 lbs sweet potatoes or yams, scrubbed, quartered lengthwise and cut crosswise into 3/4-inch chunkcs (2 large or 3 medium potatoes).
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup oil (recipe calls for Crisco, but I use olive oil and only about 1/4 cup)
2 scallions or green onions, trimmed and thinly sliced
1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper (optional)

1. Steam or boil potatoes until tender. Take skins off when cool (about 10 minutes). Place in mixing bowl.

2. Combine vinegar, pickle relish, mustard, salt and pepper in jar with a tight-fitting lid. Shake well.

3. Add oil to jar, shake well.

4. Toss warm potatoes with the dressing. Add scallions and red pepper, if used. Serve at room temperature or chilled.

(makes 4 servings).

NOTE: You can make this one day in advance and refrigerated, tightly covered.
