Paleo Sweet Potato Salad

paleo sweet potato salad

This recipe is a huge hit! I bring this to almost every cookout or potluck and always leave with a clean bowl! It is simple, healthy, kid-friendly and absolutely delicious. Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS:

2 Sweet Potatoes

2TBsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

 

For the dressing:

1/4 c. Dukes Mayo

1  1/2  TBsp. Red Wine Vinegar

1 TBsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1  1/2 tsp. Dijon Mustard

1/2 tsp. Sugar (raw or coconut sugar)

1/4 c. Parsley, chopped

3 Green Onions, chopped

3 Strips of Bacon

Salt & pepper, to taste

 

Peel & cube the sweet potatoes & toss with 2 TBsp. of EVOO, sprinkle with salt & pepper and roast at 400 degrees for about 20 mins, until soft.

Cook bacon until crispy- I do this in a cast iron pan unless I am doubling the recipe, then I cook it in the oven on a slotted pan, while the sweet potatoes cook, for about 15-18 mins.

While the sweet potatoes cook, mix together mayo, vinegar, oil, mustard & sugar. Set aside.

When the sweet potatoes are done, add them to the bowl with the sauce and crumble the bacon on top, along with the parsley and green onion- mix together & serve. 

This is also great served cold!
