Рецепт Sweet potato, walnut and blue cheese salad
Recently I went with friends to my favorite restaurant.
I love the Prime Rib they make.
That particular day they were out of Prime Rib. So I decided to go healthy and order the Popeye salad.
It was a splendid salad with lots of fresh strawberries, blue cheese, walnuts with a tangy balsamic vinaigrette. As I ate my salad I thought how good it would be if I made it with sweet potato.
That is how this salad was born.
A couple of days later I decided to make it.
It was just as good as I imagined it would be.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
