Sweet Potato Salad
At the beginning of the summer we went to our church picnic. Everyone is asked to bring some sort of salad. One of them was the most delicious potato salad I'd ever had. The problem was, I didn't know who brought it and couldn't get the recipe. A few weeks later, we were at a Canada Day BBQ at a friend's place, the same salad was being served. My friend Erin was the creator of this masterpiece. I asked what she did and got a couple of ideas to make something similar. I have yet to get it as perfect as hers, but this one was pretty good.
2 sweet potatoes
6 small/medium potatoes
1 small onion
6 eggs
1/2 cup coleslaw dressing
salt and pepper to taste
parsley to sprinkle
Peel sweet potatoes and potatoes and cut into cubes (Erin makes her cubes a lot smaller than mine). Boil until soft. Boil eggs until hard boiled. Dice onion.
Cool potatoes and eggs. Remove shells from eggs and slice or dice, depending how you like them in your salad.
Mix everything together in a salad bowl. Sprinkle with parsley to decorate.

What a unique sounding potato salad.. Sounds yummy.
I saw something similar on the Neely's show, I cant wait till next summer to make it!
I've never had sweet potatoes in a salad before, but I live them and this looks great. So does that watermelon in the background :-)
Hey! Good to see you! How're you feeling?
This potato salad looks very good. We eat potato salad year 'round so I expect that we'll be having this.
Love the addition of the sweet potatoes!
what a fun spin on potato salad!
