So delicious! I served it over mixed greens as a first course. Everyone loved it. Don't skip the pepitas--the crunch is a great addition.
Great salad. Very different from the usual "salad". I made it for a pot luck and several people asked for the recipe.
This salad turned out great. I was a little skeptical about the combo, but once the pepitas and avocado are mixed in it comes together amazingly well. I was fortunate to have 3 different kinds of sweet potato at my grocery store too! I added a shot of Bragg (I do to almost everything) and next time I think I'd add more apple, but VT's favorite recipes have yet to disappoint. This even tastes great the next day!
So delicious! A great combination of flavors and healthy, too!
I, like others, was skeptical about the ingredient combination. Sweet potatoes, apples, and avocado? Really? But it actually is quite delicious. I think it's the lime juice that pulls it all together. I didn't have pumpkin seeds to put on, but I'm sure that's what makes it truly excellent. A crunch would have been nice.
Love it! Instead of pepito, I used cashews and added dried cherries as well.
hello.I'm not a native English, so what is pepitas?
dictionary did not help on this one :)
thanks
Soooo yummy! I was not doubting that it would taste good, but I had no inkling that it was going to taste THAT good!
I only made half the recipe, as my husband is not always helpful in eating leftovers...even when they are yummy...=-) But I won't mind hogging it all!
As I have an aversion to Cilantro, BIG time, I switched to parsley as usual, and it was divine. Great recipe. High Marks! To round out my meal, I had a vegetarian sausage patty with it...
What is pepito?
