Ingredients

3 lbs sweet potatoes, cubed3 peppers (different colors is best)1 red onion, diced1/2 cup chopped basil1/3 cup olive oil2/3 cup cider vinegar1/2 tsp salt1/2 Tbsp honey3 cloves garlic, chopped.

Directions

Boil sweet potatoes until they're tender (about 8 minutes). While they're cooking, chop up peppers, onion, and basil.

Mix up dressing ingredients and toss with salad. Stevia can be substituted for the honey.

You can also toss this with Annie's Naturals Roasted Red Pepper Vinaigrette, which tastes great with this.

This is great right away, but is even better after it's had a chance to mellow in the fridge.

Jalapeno & Potato Soup

I first thought this a strange combination when I saw this on the menu on an Alaskan Cruise. The head waiter told me to try it; that I wouldn't be dissapointed. True enough, it was amazing! The cruise ship didn't have the recipe in their cookbook, but I found a similar one easily enough online. This is now one of my family's favorites. Submitted by: IORGMA

Nice hot weather recipe & sweet potatoes are a bit more nutritious! I didn't have everything on hand, so I used s.potatoes, peppers, celery, & cilantro. I also omitted the garlic. The family liked it! - 5/23/09

I was just out at my dad's place today and they also added cubed mango to the recipe. Yummers. They also used cilantro, since it's in season right now.
