Roasted Sweet Potato and Blue Cheese Salad image

WOW! Got this one from Cocina Facil magazine, it was really yummy. I did not have pine nuts (OK, I have them just couldn't find them in the freezer. Am I the only one?) Since the little camotes I had were so sweet I did not use the sugar.

Time 8m

Yield 4 , 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 small yams, peeled and cubed
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1/2 cup red onion, sliced
3 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
3 cups lettuce (it calls for escarol but I used mixed greens)
2 teaspoons pine nuts, roasted
4 teaspoons blue cheese, crumbled
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Cut the yam in small cubes, combine with sugar which I did not use, 2 tsp olive oil, salt and pepper. Cook until done (the recipe said to cook in oven, I microwaved for 8 minutes).
  • 2. Mix the vinegar and the rest of the olive oil, salt and pepper, shake.
  • 3. Combine all ingredients, let rest a minute or so, and serve.
  • 4. Very tasty, if I do say so myself!
