Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound sweet potatoes (about 2 small or 1 large, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces)
1/2 pound green beans (trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces)
1 cup cooked chickpeas
1 cup cooked kidney beans
1/2 cup chopped red onion (about 1/2 small onion)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup (granulated sugar would also work)
1 teaspoon stone-ground mustard or other brown mustard
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt + more to taste
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper + more to taste
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (either Italian or curly work)

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot halfway full with water and place over high heat. Add a few pinches of salt to the water if desired. Bring water to a boil. Carefully add the sweet potatoes and boil until almost fork-tender, 4-5 minutes. Add the green beans and cook for three more minutes, until bright green and tender. Drain and let cool slightly. Add to a large bowl along with the chickpeas, kidney beans, and onion. Stir gently to combine, trying not to break up the sweet potatoes.
  • To a small bowl, add the olive oil, vinegar, pure maple syrup, mustard, salt, pepper, and parsley. Whisk until combined. Pour over the potatoes and beans. Toss gently to coat veggies with dressing. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper if desired. Serve immediately for a warm potato salad (my preference) or chill until ready to serve.

I'm not usually a fan of sweet potatoes, but I loved them in this salad. They were roasted to perfection and had a slightly caramelized flavor.

I added some crumbled feta cheese to my salad, and it was amazing! It added a nice salty tang that balanced out the sweetness of the sweet potatoes.
