Spicy Chipotle Sweet Potato Salad

June 10, 2017 by jlpenner 15 Comments

Looking for summer salad? Check out this Spicy Chipotle Sweet Potato Salad.  It's got ALL the good stuff.It’s SUMMER time and aren’t we all looking for unique dishes for pool parties, picnic and get togethers??

Well, this is a GREAT unique spin on an old favorite of potato salad.

Spicy Chipotle Sweet Potato Salad

I came up with it because I was recently making a super yummy Spicy Chipotle mayo/dip and thought it might make a great new mix in for potato salad.   I have found that the flavors of Chipotle and sweet potato are a great match, so my recipe was born.

Let me know if you give it a try and comment below on YOUR favorite summer side dish.

Note- I don’t like heavy mayo, but if you do you may want to add more.

    Tried this recipe, it looked fantastic in the picture and I'm in love with these ingredients! I found it lacked crunch that's needed, so first thought is to get the sweet potato crunchy on outside, second idea is to add a crunch like regular potato salad has with celery or something else crunchy. Will try round two!

    Would yogurt be a good substitute for the mayo (for those who dislike mayo), or would that impact the flavor too much?
