Sweet Potato Salad

Sweet Potato Salad

EverydayCooked

Sweet potato salad is a nutrient-dense dish featuring cooked sweet potatoes as the base, often roasted or boiled to enhance their natural sweetness and creamy texture. This vibrant alternative to traditional potato salad typically incorporates ingredients like crisp vegetables, fresh herbs, and tangy dressings—ranging from light citrus vinaigrettes to creamy avocado-based sauces. Rich in beta-carotene, fiber, and vitamin A, it offers a gluten-free foundation that can easily adapt to vegan diets by omitting dairy or egg additives.
