Roasted Sweet Potato Salad with Pistou (AIP, Paleo, Vegan, Whole30)

Roasted Sweet Potato Salad with Pistou (AIP, Paleo, Vegan, Whole30)

Around this time last year I developed a fondness for the white sweet potato. The typical orange-fleshed sweet potatoes, or yams, are okay; and while I’ve come around on them somewhat, I still find the sweetness of this latter type cloying.

But the white sweet potato, like the Hannah or the Jersey? Well these guys are great! Their sweetness is rather tempered, allowing for a fuller range of flavour possibilities.

Salad BRecently we’ve been enjoying letting those white sweets shine in this Roasted Sweet Potato Salad with Pistou. I don’t do well with super low-carb, and so a serving of this is just perfect at dinner with some greens and a protein.

Get making some of that delish Pistou so you too can nom on this fab side dish.
