We FINALLY brought a dish to Grandma’s birthday party that someone ate besides us: <\/p>\n
\nSweet Potato Salad
\nFrom: The Thrill of the Grill<\/p>\n4 medium sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds cut into uniform large pieces
\n1\/2 red bell pepper, seeded and diced small
\n1\/2 green bell pepper, seeded and diced small
\n1\/2 large red onion, diced small
\n4 T finely chopped parsley<\/p>\nFor the dressing
\n3 T Dijon mustard
\n3 T ketchup
\n1 t minced garlic
\n3\/4 c olive oil
\n4 T cider vinegar
\n1 T Worcestershire sauce
\n2 T lime juice
\nSalt and pepper to taste<\/p>\nBring salted water to boil and boil sweet potatoes 10-12 min. You should be able to pierce them with a fork, but still feel some resistance and they shouldn’t fall apart. Don’t over cook!<\/p>\n
Prepare ice water bath in your sink for potatoes.<\/p>\n
When potatoes are done, drain in a colander and plunge into ice bath. Then drain well.<\/p>\n
Add peppers, onion and parsley.<\/p>\n
Make dressing by combining mustard, ketchup and garlic. Whisk in olive oil. Add vinegar, Worcestershire and lime juice, salt and pepper. <\/p>\n
Pour dressing over potatoes and serve or refrigerate.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The recipe says this will keep for 5 days, but I’ve noticed that the vinegar seems to break down the potatoes into mushiness after a day. Try adding cayenne or something else spicy.<\/p>\n
It’s tempting to double this recipe because it uses so many halves of veggies, but we’ve always had leftovers-even from large gatherings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
