Ingredients

3 medium sweet potatoes

1 medium red onion (or half large red onion), chopped

3 T. olive oil

3 T. brown mustard

1/3 c. balsamic vinegar

2 fully cooked chicken andouille sausage links (2.4 oz. each), cubed

1/2 cup chopped parsley

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Boil sweet potatoes until firm, but fork tender (do not overcook, or the salad will be a pile of mush), cool, then chop into 1/2 inch cubes. (You could try chopping them first so they cook faster, but I have not tested this method for this recipe.) Add all remaining ingredients except parsley and toss. Add chopped parsley to top and serve. A pinch of sugar (or sugar substitute like Splenda) is optional, to bring out the sweetness -- but is not calculated in the nutritional totals.
