I am completely sold with the addition of roasted sweet potatoes. I made a salad once with roasted butternut squash and I fell in love instantly so I know this one may be next.
Julie says
I am unable to eat spicy foods like chipotle. Is there something else I could add to the lime to make a good dressing that’s not spicy?
Kita says
Hi Julie, I would reduce the amount of minced adobo pepper in sauce to to 1/2 teas or less if that would work or I can see this also being very good with a creamy peppercorn or avocado dressing.
Julie says
Thank you Kita, Do you have a recipe for a avocado dressing? It sounds delicious!
Kita says
Hi Julie, So sorry for the delay! In my head I replied to this yesterday. >< I don't have an avocado dressing recipe, but my home slice does! https://www.simplyscratch.com/2014/04/creamy-avocado-salad-dressing.html I would totally give this recipe a try 😀
