Sweet Potato and Black Bean Salad

This is a recipe that Rob found on YouTube, and admittedly, Rob cooked it and not me.

Ingredients

3 or 4 sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed

1/2 red onion, roughly chopped

1 cup chopped cilantro *fresh*

1 red pepper, roughly chopped (optional)

1 can of black beans, rinsed and drained.

2 limes, juiced

3 tbsp olive oil

1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and chopped.

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2. Toss chopped potatoes and onions with a bit of oil. Place on baking sheet and roast for 30 minutes (or until you can pierce the potatoes with a fork).

3. Meanwhile, put lime juice, olive oil, and jalapeños into a blender and blend until smooth.

4. When potatoes and onions are done, let the cool.

5. Add potatoes, onions, red peppers, beans cilantro, and the lime mixture to a bowl.

6. Season with salt and pepper and toss.

This salad tastes better after it has been refrigerated for a few hours, but it is very tasty!! If you are not a fan of cilantro (like me), you can use it sparingly until it meets your tastes.
