1 large sweet potato (about 2 cups), peeled

¼ to ⅓ cup mayonnaise  

1 tsp yellow Dijon or spicy whole grain mustard

1½ Tbsp apple cider vinegar

Salt and pepper to taste

What You Do:

1. Boil potatoes whole until they’re slightly firm.

2. Cool and slice potatoes.  

3. Whisk all dressing ingredients together and pour over potatoes.  

4. Toss gently with a spatula to coat, and adjust seasonings if needed.

5. Refrigerate and let flavors meld.

6. Before serving, sprinkle more dill, paprika or parsley over the top to give it a colorful and appetizing look.

Waxy, not dry potatoes work best.
