I'm doing some food prep for the weekend tomorrow and I'm going to make this - it's a nice twist on potato salad.
Roasted Yukon Gold and Sweet Potato SaladIngredients:4 Yukon gold potatoes (about 2 lb)
3 sweet potatoes (about 2 lb)
3 tbsp canola or olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1 sweet red pepper, diced
2 green onions, finely chopped
Dressing:
3/4 cup light mayonnaise
1/3 cup buttermilk or non-fat yogurt
1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander or parsley
2 tbsp lime or lemon juice juice
1/4 tsp each salt and pepper
1 bulb garlic (optional)
Preparation:Peel and cut Yukon gold and sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes; place in large bowl.
Add oil and salt - toss to coat. Spread on large greased rimmed baking sheet; roast in 425°F oven, stirring once, until tender and golden,
60 to 65 minutes. Let cool on sheet.(I usually roast a bulb of garlic at the same time and add one squeezed bulb of roasted garlic to the dressing but it wasn't in the original recipe)
Dressing:
Meanwhile, in bowl, whisk together mayonnaise,buttermilk/yogurt, coriander/parsley, lime/lemon juice, salt and pepper. In large bowl, combine potatoes, red pepper and green onions.Dress salad, toss to coat.
