How to roast sweet potatoes for the salad:
- Wash 2 large sweet potatoes and cut them into small pieces. I like to use sweet potatoes with skin on. You can peel the skin off if you want to.
- Take the chopped sweet potatoes in a mixing bowl and add 1tsp of salt, 1tsp of paprika or chili powder and 1tbsp of oil.
- Toss and mix the seasoning well with the potatoes, the oil helps to keep the salt and spice coat on the vegetable.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Spread the spiced sweet potatoes on a baking pan in a single layer. You may use parchment paper.
- Bake this at 400F for 25 to 30 minutes until slightly crispy.
Sweet potato peanut feta salad:
- Take the roasted sweet potatoes back in the mixing bowl. Add 1/4 cup of each white sweet onions and green onions.
- Also, add 1/4 cup of roasted peanuts and 1/4 cup of sliced almonds. Here you can use toasted coconut if you wish in place of Almond slices.
- Next, add 1/2 cup of feta cheese crumbles.
- Season with pepper powder (1/2tsp approx.) and some lemon juice.
- Mix everything gently with a spatula and serve this yummy healthy Sweet potato peanut salad with a bowl of your favorite soup.
