I'm not a huge fan of cilantro, but I didn't find it to be overpowering in this salad. The other flavors really balanced it out.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. I always have a few extra on hand after Thanksgiving and this is the perfect way to use them.

The spicy peanut dressing is the star of the show. It's creamy, flavorful, and has just the right amount of heat.
