February 23, 2011 by Leanne Vogel September 1, 2014

Play games with your taste buds with a twist of ginger, the sweetness of raisins, and earthy tones of yam. Great served on it’s own, as a side to a burger, or wrapped in a rice tortilla!

Ingredients

• 2 medium sized sweet potatoes, diced into 1/2 inch cubes – don’t peel!
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1/2 cup pecans, chopped
• 2 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
• 3 stalks celery, diced small
• 1/2 red onion, diced small
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• Black pepper

Instructions

1. Fill a large sauce pan of water, cover and bring to a boil. Place diced sweet potato in pot and cook for 8-10 minutes. Remember: you don’t want them too soft!
2. Meanwhile, combine remaining ingredients in a large bowl.
3. After yams are strained and rinsed, add to the large bowl and mix until just combined.
4. Serve warm, or cold. Either way, it’s delicious!
