Sweet Potato Salad

"You can't fix ugly" - I'm sorry, but there aren't enough filters in the world to make potato salad look appetizing to me. You just have to take my word for it- I do not like potato salad, but this sweet potato salad is worth taking a little leap of faith for.

I honestly just tossed this together with mostly leftovers from last week's meal plan (the slow cooked coconut curry chicken and a lone sweet potato with nothing to do). It has plenty of protein, so feel free to experiment with your own modifications.

Ingredients:

4oz slow-cooked chicken

1 hard-boiled egg (whole)

8 hard-boiled egg whites (I give Obi the yolks)

1 sweet potato, cooked, peeled, cubed

1/2 cup greek yogurt

1/4 cup parmesan cheese

2 cups broccoli slaw- chop it in food processor, 2 pulses

2 celery sticks, chopped

1 small onion, minced

1/4 cup dried cranberries or goji berries (optional)

1/8 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

seasoning: garlic, cinnamon, salt & pepper

Instructions:

I already had everything cooked, so this is what I did:

In a large bowl, combine chicken, chopped eggs, onion, celery, and broccoli slaw. In the food processor, I combined the sweet potato, cheese, greek yogurt, garlic, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Process until it has a smooth consistency, and then mix in with the egg and chicken mixture. Fold in the cranberries and walnuts and then add whatever other fun things you want!

The recipe as I made it yields 4 servings of 200 calories, so you have space to work with when deciding what to serve it with. I haven't decided yet, but I think I'm gonna have mine with celery sticks- I know, I'm so wild and crazy! lol

Maybe a pita, on a bed of lettuce, as a wrap...

Any other ideas?
