Sweet Potatoes, Creamy Honey Mustard Dressing

PinSave

Did you have a good day today? I did but I was extremely busy!  It was not the kind of day where I could take Skylar and play on backyard swing sets since we were busy running errands, cooking, cleaning, and catching up on laundry.   She’s my little helper.

From my earlier post today about my online order, it got me thinking that I need to get busy making some Nooch Recipes now that I have my stash replenished.

I need to make some more Spicy “Doritos” Cheezy Dip

Or maybe I should whip up another Cheezy Vegetable Bake

The Nooch is perfect in the baked veggies

I have about 15 nooch recipes compiled, here

Since I eat so many salads and dressings really help make the salad and keep things interesting, I made a Creamy Honey Mustard Dressing.

Ingredients needed to make Sweet Potatoes, Creamy Honey Mustard Dressing

I combined:

1 part Vegan Slaw Dressing (or just use Vegenasie or Mayo if you don’t want to make a batch of homemade vegan slaw dressing)

1 part mustard

1 part honey (I did a post here on Honey, i.e. Raw/Local honey, Vegans & Honey, etc.)

Stirred.  And poured over my salad

And I also wanted to roast a sweet potato but couldn’t decide if I wanted sweet potato rounds, i.e. chips…

….Or

Sweet Potato Fries

Stacked Sweet Potato FriesAnd then I got sidetracked, ran out of time to roast anything, and had to go get ready for work so will have to save the sweet tater roasting for another day.

 

From my last post on Online Ordering and Mini’s.  It was fun to hear what you’ve ordered lately.  And what mini foods, or things, you like.  No one likes a mini bank account, though, right?

Questions:

1. Do you like nooch (nutritional yeast) and if so, what’s your fave way to use it?

Yes, see my Nooch Recipes.  I adore it!

It’s one of those foods I discovered through blogging a couple years ago and have no idea how I ever lived without it!

2. Do you like mustard?

Oh yes!  As you can see from my salad dressing concoction.

And I posted here how I was reunited with a long lost love after 10 years!

3. Do you like sweet potatoes and if so, what’s your fave way to eat them?

I find that exactly how one prepares them has a huge impact on finished product, especially when roasting them…

Sweet Potato Fries on foil lined pan

how thick or thin you cut/slice the potatoes

shapes used, sticks/wedges/fries/rounds

covered/uncovered

to oil or not and whether you spray, coat, drizzle, toss in oil, etc.

flip or not

heat/temp

time

…All make SUCH a big difference in the finished product.

I need to make some cinnamon and sugar sweet potato chips, soon!  I love eating sweet potatoes that way.

And then I could dip them into the salad dressing mixture I made.  Sweet, savory, mustardy, all rolled into one.

How do you make your sweet potatoes?

  1. Favorite way to eat sweet potatoes: Cubed and sauteed in coconut oil with onions. (I know the onions would ruin it for you!)

  2. I love sweet potato rounds, fries, etc, but I really just like a good roasted (aka microwaved!!) sweet potato with some cinnamon and brown sugar on top. They are so delicious.

    That honey mustard dressing sounds delicious!

    Thanks again for your help RE: kombucha!

  3. Yum! That creamy honey mustard dressing looks amazing. I think I’ll have to make it for my salad today. I was thinking about having a sweet potato for lunch today too so, that’s perfect! If I sprinkle some nutritional yeast on that salad, I’ll be golden! ;-) Yes…mustard, sweet potatoes and nutritional yeast are all wonderful things!

  4. HAHA this is too funny because I’m currently eating a salad with sweet potato chunks and topped with honey-mustard dressing. So YES, I like sweet potatoes! I usually just wrap them in a paper towel and microwave them for a minute and a half or so. Easy peasy. And I also love nooch and mustard. Lots of orangey/yellow things on your blog today!!

  5. Honey mustard is by far my favorite dressing! Such a simple way to make it, too…and serving it with carrot fries is perfect. :)

  6. I just started eating nooch and it’s so versatile I love it! I am gonna have to try one of your recipes for using notch because they all look so delicious! :)

  7. YES YES! you know I love sweet potatoes! i have been microwaving them i batches and just keeping them in the fridge when I need to grab and go! BUT I think my best batch I want to roast like you always do. They look so delicious and I can see the crispy edges which are the BEST PART, right?!

    From your past post I love iherb!! I already used the ave360 coupon code so I cant use it again, but it is SO much cheaper than WF, I am running out of nooch so I will place another order soon!!

  8. Yes, yes, and yes! I think I could eat sweet potatoes every day actually. And I love using nooch (used it in my dinners the past 2 nights), also used mustard in a sauce this week. Condiments are awesome ;-)

  9. I have never had nooch – I have been reading about it for so long I can’t believe I haven’t tried it yet. I really hadn’t seen many recipes to use it in so didn’t want to spend the money for it but I think I am going to try it now. Thanks for the idea’s on how to use it.
    I love sweet potatoe’s and have been craving them lately – Gonna have to replenish that stock tonight after work.
    Your little girl Skylar is so beautiful (just like mommy) and such a little cutie – Your lucky to have her.
    Have a great day

  10. Between you and Sarena, I think I’ll be getting my B’s in this week :P That spicy cheezy dip looks amazing! And YES to the honey mustard dressing!! I just had sweet potatoes roasted in honey mustard, and they were probably my fav. to date. (…or maybe that’s just because they’re most recent in my mind, lol) I’ve discovered I love them cut into wedges – it’s a happy medium between fries and baked whole because the insides still get all gooey while the crust is still..well…crusty. :P And tossed in just a little bit of oil. Too much and they lose the crisp factor. Oh geeze, I could write a book on sweet potatoes I think. I’ll stop now :P Have a great day Averie!

  11. you truly most| certainly appreciate how you can carry a dilemma in order to easy to make the thought vital

  12. Cutest little helper ever :)
    That dressing looks perfect, and I have everything to make it, so I will today, thanks!!!!

  13. I’ve been using the GF brewers yeast a lot now. Its amazing mixed in wasabi mustard. Can you tell I love my condiments? hehe.
    I bet it would awesome with sweet potato fries!

  14. Hey Averie, it’s been a while! It’s also a while since I haven’t had sweet potatoes, and your post just reminded them about them gorgeous yummy things :)
    When I’m home I usually cut them in wedges or fries and roast them. When I’m at the office, it’s microwave all the way (has to be quick like that) with anything that suits my fancy then :)

    Have a great night / day!

    ;)
