I had planned to post a recipe for lamb this week. Then I discovered that this week is National Vegetarian Week so I decided to go with this Mexican Sweet Potato and Black Bean Salad instead.
Mexican Sweet Potato and Black Bean Salad
Category: Chilli
Pico de Gallo
Mexican food is one of my favourite cuisines. I regularly cook meals that have lime, coriander, oregano and lots of chilli in them. There is usually one ‘star’ dish with a lot of little side dishes. It is the little sides that make the meal in my opinion. Usually I make the cooked tomato salsa […]
