Great Potato Salad Recipe (Courtesy of Mark Bittman)





Normally I don't post recipes, but this one is simply superb. Please bear in mind that Mark Bittman used entirely approximate amounts, so adjust based on your tastes

Ingredients:
3 Yams/Sweet Potatoes, peeled
1/3 of a red onion, sliced into squares
3tbsp olive oil
Juice from 2 limes
1 Jalapeno Pepper
2 cloves of garlic
1 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/2 can black beans

1. Dice the potatoes into bite-sized cubes and roast on a baking sheet with onions for approximately 25 minutes at 375F
2. Combine oil, garlic, lime juice, and jalapeno into a food processor. Blend until fine
3. Remove potatoes and onions from oven, and allow to cool
4. Drain and rinse black beans until clean
5. Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Toss and serve.

It's just that easy, and truly blows regular potato salad out of the water. Check out out some of the pictures we took making it last night, and find the original vid here.

Citrus-y, sweet, springy, and just plain awesome. Who said eating vegetarian had to be boring?
