Categories     side-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Nonstick cooking spray, for spraying the baking sheet
6 cups 1/2-inch-diced sweet potatoes (4 to 6 large sweet potatoes; I leave the skin on but peeling is an option)
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups loosely packed baby arugula
4 scallions, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Toss the sweet potatoes in a large bowl with the olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Stir the potatoes and continue to bake until fork-tender, an additional 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cooled sweet potatoes, arugula and scallions. In a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise with the lemon juice and Parmesan; season with salt and pepper. Just before serving, toss the dressing with the sweet potato and arugula mixture to coat.

Time 45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 slices bacon, crisply cooked and crumbled
6 new red potatoes
1 ⅓ cups mayonnaise
1 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
⅛ teaspoon dry hot mustard
⅛ teaspoon salt
¾ cup chopped bok choy
1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
½ cup chopped green onion
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain, cool, and chop into bite-size chunks.
  • To make the dressing, mix together the mayonnaise, sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, mustard powder, and salt.
  • Combine the potatoes, bacon, bok choy, red pepper, green onion and cilantro in a large bowl. Pour over dressing and mix well. Refrigerate for at least one hour to allow flavors to blend, and serve.
