Sweet Potato Salad

In a real pinch, with very little time to a deadline, I called my sister-in-law Judy— well-known in London for her culinary skills — and asked for a tried-and-true side dish. We tried and we loved. Hope you will too! Thank you, Judy!

This can be used as a side or a salad.

  3. To make dressing, bring olive oil and vinegar to a boil in a small pan, then simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

  5. Pour over sweet potato mixture and mix well before serving. Sprinkle dried cranberries on top, if desired.

I looked at the picture and it looks as if you have pecans, celery and orange slices in this salad too!? It looks as if the sweet potato actually plays a very small part. What type of orange would you recommend?
