TROPICAL SWEET POTATO SALAD
A great choice instead of the traditional potato salad. The spices, pineapple, and toasted pecans provide the perfect complement to the naturally sweet yams.

JAPANESE SWEET POTATO & TROPICAL DATE SALAD STACK
My love of Asian flavors inspired me to create a whole new twist on potato salad. I chose Japanese sweet potatoes to mix with red miso, ginger-soy, sambal and combined with whipped cream cheese. Then, I mixed carrot, cucumber, peppers, cashew, pineapple and dates together and dressed lightly for a sweet and spicy topping to compliment the savory potato base and topped with hard boiled egg. Cilantro garnishes the dish, and this beauty is delicious as well as beautiful! I hope you'll try it and enjoy it as much as we do!

Steps:
- Place cubed potato into a large saucepan and cover with cold water, add 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook until cubes are tender, about 8 minutes. Drain and cool for 10 minutes, then partially mash. Mix remaining Japanese Sweet Potato Salad ingredients together in a medium bowl, add the potatoes and mix well. Cover and chill for 1 hour minimum.
- In a medium bowl, add all of the Tropical Date Salad Topping ingredients and mix. Cover and chill.
- Place eggs in a small saucepan, and cover with water. Cover, bring water to a boil, turn off heat and let sit for 10 minutes. Drain and place eggs into ice water and peel when cooled.
- To serve, first drain the salad topping. Divide potato salad onto 6 equal portions on serving plates and form into a flat-topped disk on the plates, then place a mound of Tropical Date Salad Topping on each. Cut each egg in half lengthwise and place a half, yolk side up, on top of each stack. Sprinkle eggs with equal portions of the paprika, garnish with cilantro and serve.
