This salad screams summer with fresh sweet corn, cucumbers, and tomatoes from your garden or the farmers market. It won't last long in your fridge once you taste it but it will keep for several days (especially if you avoid salting the vegetables when you add your dressing). Use as a stand alone salad or pair with fish or chicken, great as a salsa for fish tacos. This fresh, healthy salad will help with these hot, hot days! Enjoy!

Serves two people as a main course, or more if served as a side

We received some sweet potatoes as a gift, and I came up with this recipe. Kabocha squash and sweet potatoes are similar, so I used the kabocha squash salad they sell at the deli counters in a department store food hall as inspiration.The sweet potatoes should be on the soft side. If you think they are little hard when you're mashing them, microwave them for a few minutes. This salad is delicious when it's freshly made, but I recommend chilling it in the refrigerator before serving. If you want a smoother texture, add some milk and adjust. Recipe by Mokodeli

This salad goes well with spicy dishes. The sweet and sour mix also takes away the burn from spicy food!

I love cucumber salad but the full fat mayo version has too many calories. So I've created one that uses lighter ingredients but the taste isn't compromised. This is my "go to" side dish for so many meals now made with less guilt!

Asian sweet potatoes and cheese make a delicious combination.I add milk to thin out the sauce since I have a hard time swallowing sweet potatoes if I only use mayo. Adjust the saltiness according to your preference. Recipe by Pukuttopukumaru

This is a really great new version to a caesar salad The croutons are always a hit!!

Light, flavorful and satisfying lunch.

A twist on the date & celery salad I've been making for years. If you don't have rice wine vinegar, try white wine vinegar or fresh squeezed lemon juice.

Raisins's sweetness goes well with spicy curry flavor. I combined them with seasonal sweet potatoes and also add the walnuts for the crunch. Grated garlic brings out the flavor.Walnuts taste and smell better when roasted. Watch the walnuts carefully since it burns easily. You can use kabocha squash instead of sweet potatoes.
