Maple Mustard Cashew Dressing
Sweet potatoes aren’t just delicious; they’re a powerhouse of nutrition. Their high fiber content aids digestion. I’m slightly obsessed with them and do everything from boiling to baking them. Sweet potatoes are one of those vegetables that come in many different variations but never disappoint. If you undercook them they are a little less sweet and provide a really nice texture that I consider similar to cooked carrots; and if you overcook them they quickly become a mash and the sweetness and sugars start to develop. I feel they are perfect for this dish because their sweet flavour complements the nutty quinoa and tangy dressing perfectly.
