Balsamic Dressing Ingredients:
  • 4 Tbsp Flax oil or walnut oil (can also just use extra virgin olive oil)
  • 4 Tbsp Extra virgin olive oil

  6. Allow sweet potato to cool and then add to salad and mix well.

Dressing Instructions:
  1. Add all ingredients to a mason jar or anything that can be closed and shake to combine. (I like to use my emersion blender for this but it is not necessary).
