This is a new recipe that I quite love -
Smoky Black Bean and Sweet Potato Salad. It brings black beans together with tender, oven-roasted sweet potatoes, crunchy fresh red peppers and cukes, along with smoky seasonings, lime juice, and fresh herbs (chives, oregano, and parsley). I just love how the soft sweet potatoes partially break down in the salad to help act as a binder to hold the other components together. I make this and eat up the leftovers with a big bowl of leafy greens for lunches during the week. Makes for such a satisfying lunch that has vibrant flavors and packs
dy-no-mite nutrition!
