Sweet Potato And Apple Salad
The nifty thing about this refreshing salad is ... The sweet potatoes are raw. Yes, it can be done! This salad is similar to one created by charlie myers at the gumbo pot at the farmer's market in los angeles. It has to be made in advance and sit overnight, so that the raw sweet potatoes can soften and all the flavors can meld properly.
