Your new Thanksgiving Sweet Potato dish by LBT

Yes, we're gonna consider sweet potatoes Paleo - especially since it's Thanksgiving!

What You Need
• 3 pounds sweet potato, peeled and chopped
• 1/2 head radicchio, chopped -
No, I didn't know what this was either...but you can find it!
• 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
• 1/3 cup walnuts, chopped and roasted -
about 10 minutes on 325 in the oven if you wanna make your own without all the added 'stuff'

Dressing
• 1/2 cup fresh squeezed orange juice
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1/2 jalapeño, finely diced aka minced for all you chef's out there!
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

How to Make it
1. Boil peeled and chopped sweet potatoes in large pot until tender. Drain water off when cooked.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together orange juice, olive oil, honey, jalapeño, salt and pepper.
3. In a large bowl, combine cooked sweet potatoes with chopped radicchio, cilantro and roasted walnuts. Toss gently with dressing and serve!
