Chipotle Sweet Potato Salad

May 1, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 20 Comments

Hi Everyone,

How are you today!  I’m doing great!  I have a wonderful recipe for you, it’s a different spin to traditional potato salad.  The other day, I got some potatoes from the CSA and my Husband asked if could make him potato salad, you know the fatty kind, with a half a tub of full fat mayonnaise.  Blah!  I reluctantly agreed, but I made it strictly for him.  Now I could make a low calorie regular potato salad for myself, but I had some sweet potatoes to use up because they were starting to bud.  Don’t you hate when that happens?  So I came up with this wonderful Chipotle Sweet Potato Salad.

I thought hmmm, I love sweet potato fries dipped in my Spicy Chipotle Aiolo Sauce, why not take that idea and make Potato Salad.  Well, I did and it is wonderful.  If you like sweet potatoes and spiciness, then you’ll like this salad.


I boiled my potatoes with Hubby’s White potatoes and you know what I found out?  White Potatoes sink to the bottom of the pot, while sweet potatoes float.  Weird huh?  This made it easy for separating the white and the orange potatoes.  My Husband would freak if he knew my orange tatters touched his precious white ones. 🙂  I still do not understand why he doesn’t like sweet potatoes?

These potatoes are very creamy, so you have to be careful when your mixing it or it will become like mashed potatoes, which actually wouldn’t be too bad.  The best description I can give this dish is creamy, light, fresh and has a kick!  You can add more peppers to it to make even spicier.  I’ll leave that to you!  All I know is I love this dish and it will become a summer staple for me.  It lasts for days in the fridge.  I’m on day 3 of eating it.  I made the portion size to serve three, but honestly it’s more like four.  It’s very filling.

I wanted to tell you I started a 3 to 5 day detox (your choice for how long), just to clean the system and get a fresh start for the Spring season.  I spring clean my house why not my body?  🙂

This program is pretty easy, it can be for three days or for five days.  I’m going for three right now.  Here are the instructions.  Oh I got this from the Lauren Kelly Nutritionist

  • start each morning with hot water and 1/2 fresh squeezed lemon (must be on empty stomach to flush out toxins)
  • no coffee , just green tea (aim for 3-5 cups)
  • 1 gallon of water a day which you can add lemon, mint or ginger to
  • no dairy (except plain greek yogurt) (she told me as much as I want)
  • no bread/pasta/rice… only quiona or rolled/steel cut oats
  • opt for 2-3 “juices*” a day if you want to juice, otherwise load up on fresh raw veggies.  no more than 2-3 fruits each day * juices are only homemade with fresh veggies and fruit
  • no sugar at all (besides the fruit)
  • no carbonated beverages at all (obviously no soda but also no seltzer)
  • if you want to do vegetarian, load up on raw or steamed beans (mix with raw veggies and lime juice)
  • if you aren’t doing vegetarian, choose only lean white meats and fish and either steam, grill or bake  (Herbs, garlic, lemon, lime (even fresh orange) are great to season)
  • hard boiled eggs are great, only 1 whole egg per day, egg whites are unlimited
  • All nuts are great.  Make sure they are raw and unsalted.  Also, no more than 14 nuts per serving, 2 servings a day. (she said I can sub one nut serving for olive oil)
  • Lastly, make sure you get between 7-8 hours of sleep each night.  Now, I know those who have kids, sometimes kids don’t get the memo.  Try your best by going to bed early each night!

Well my first day is almost through and I could handle it, except for the coffee part.  I asked if I could have one cup of coffee and she said yes.  I really, really tried to skip the coffee, but by 2:00 in the afternoon my head was pounding!!  I broke down and got a ice coffee from Starbucks.  My headache went away.  Goes to show I’m addicted to coffee.  The other hard part I have, is drinking 16 cups of water.  I’m currently at 11 and I know I won’t make 16, but I’m really trying.  Oddly enough I haven’t peed that much today (sorry thats gross).  My friend said I was probably dehydrated from all the coffee I drink and my organs are probably absorbing the water.

One thing I learned today is I need to drink more water!  Now doing detoxes is something I never thought of doing, but I thought what the heck!  Let’s see if I feel a change or if my scale changes at all.  Do I feel better?  No, I feel the same.  I think it’s because I eat pretty healthy as it is.  So this detox all in all hasn’t been hard for me, except for the coffee.  Most of the food I make already, I can eat in this detox.

Will I do this tomorrow?  I don’t know?  It doesn’t hurt, and I’ll pretty much stick to this program as is.  I don’t need to make to many adjustments.  Just drink less coffee, drink more water and incorporate more veggies, less sugar and less processed foods.  I really believe you can have everything in moderation.  As they say, what it comes down to is calories in, calories out.  A person can lose as much weight eating McDonalds as someone who eats vegetables all day if they consume the same amount of calories.   Why do I eat healthy?  There are a few reasons, health, appearance, and I feel better, more energy!  I’ll stick to what I’m doing because I’m happy!  I don’t really believe in diets, it’s a lifestyle change you need to make.  I’ve tried diets and I never make it past the first day!  I lost weight by changing how I live.  So I challenge you to make a small change to better your health!  It’s the little changes that count!  It may not seem like much, but the smallest change can really make an impact in the long run.  Are you with me on this?

Well enough about detoxes, diets and calories, I just thought I would give you that for food for thought!  🙂

Well, How I Met Your Mother is on and my favorite show Two Broke Girls is also on tonight, so I am signing off!

Have a great day!!

Jennifer

P.S.  I told my Husband about the Chinese Chicken Salad blog, on how he ate salad for dinner and this is what he said.  “You woman food bloggers are just trying to change us men, we don’t eat salad, we eat meat!”  lol  Next time I cook him steak, I’m going to stuff it with salad!  ha ha

      Hi Sarah! If you make the sweet potatoe salad, let me know what your Husband thinks! I am offically on day two of the detox, and so far so good! I did splurge and had a 1/2 a cup of coffee today, I was afraid of getting another headache. I did drink my lemon and water first thing this morning and I’m starting my endless drinking of water as we speak. I did hop on the scale and I lost 1lbs. Not to bad for one day! I can’t wait to see tomorrow. Have a great day!

    Good luck with your cleanse. Like you, I usually find they aren’t too hard since I do eat pretty clean… but the coffee kills me. 🙂

Happy Thursday! I am a day ahead of myself this w Happy Thursday!  I am a day ahead of myself this week. I thought yesterday was Thursday and I was excited because I thought today was Friday. I knew what day of the week it was, but my brain didn’t get it. Does that ever happen to you?

I’m sharing with you my new dog bone container that I got from @outshine_co. Oh my gosh Sampson loves it! Mom, move out of the way, I’m taking over!!
🐶
Hi all! This is Sammy here! I just have to tell you my Mom now has no excuse not to have bones in the house anymore. This beautiful container hold 5 boxes of my favorite Trader Joe’s bones. My Mom also needs to know that carrots, celery or a piece of lettuce doesn’t cut it! Bones is what I must have!
🐶
The container is made of a nice heavy coated carbon steel and holds 12lbs or 54 cups of dog food and bones. 🤩Yes thank you! That is what I’m taking about. The only thing is, the lid is so well fitted and airtight that I can’t get my paws in it. What’s up with that? Not fair! I need access to bones at all times.
🐶
My Mom loves the container too because it looks pretty on her counter and even comes with a sticker that she can write my name on. I absolutely love this container! Thank you Outshine Co. for sending this to me, I mean my Mom.
🐶
Thank your for letting me take over! I miss and love you guys!  Love Sampson!

Happy Wednesday! Half way through the week. I’m Happy Wednesday!  Half way through the week. I’m sharing with you, possibly my last look of my living room in it’s winter decor. I am so ready to add some color.
🪴
Depending on what is going on this weekend, I hoping to go to Homegoods for maybe a new blanket and some pillows. The only thing what color? I’m almost gravitating towards pink?
🪴
Though, yellow may look nice with the green plants. However, I do have so many pillows. Maybe I should look for pillow covers? Less storage. Pillows take up so much room. Oh the decisions.
🪴
I’ve seen some of you share pillow covers from Hobby Lobby. I’ve never seen them at my store, but I’ll do a search when I’m there? I guess that means I’m hitting up Hobby Lobby too. 😂
🪴
Instead of my daily question, I just want to wish and hope everyone is safe with this crazy weather.

🐰
Now that Valentines is over, it’s officially time for spring, at least in my mind. The weather may say otherwise, but I’ve been craving spring colors in my home. I went pretty neutral in my living room for winter, but I think I’m going to add some pastels. Now what color to add?
🐰
Last year if you followed me, I spent months trying to decide on what color to use. Ugh, I think I’m in the same boat again this year. I like yellows because it’s a happy color, but I also like pinks and blues. Oh the decisions.
🐰
I haven’t seem to much inspiration in the stores, though Target seems to have yellows and corals, plus a lot of neutrals. I’m seeing a lot of boho and woods. I do like woods with greenery.
🐰
What color doing you like to use in your home for Spring?

Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bi Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bit of rough day in my house. Woke up to see my sweet Sampson wasn’t feeling well.  He was just laying around, didn’t get up to greet me, and the biggest sign was he didn’t ask for a bone. You know how he’s obsessed with bones.
🐶
Around 9am he perked up and asked for a bone and wanted to go outside to snoop around. He seems to be better, but is still kind of laying around. I just hope he will be okay. He’s 11, and I get so worried. He’s my child.
🐶
I’m sharing with you my pretty tulips from Trader Joe’s. They have such a great selection of tulips in array of colors. Though I didn’t see any roses, which is strange. We do not have any plans for the weekend, that I know of, but we have the tendency to wing it.  I’ll keep you posted. Hope you have a wonderful Valentines weekend!

Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most likely be heading to Trader Joe’s and I have to get my husband a Valentines gift. I would get him his favorite, chocolate, but he bought himself a ton of chocolate last weekend, so I’ll have to think of something else. Maybe he’ll like flowers from Trader Joe’s? Lol
🌸
Speaking of flowers, check out my new, gorgeous marble and wood cutting board that I got from my friend Brantley from @thesassyoak. I love the engraved flowers in it. It is so pretty.
🌸
The cutting board is her newest item at her Etsy shop. She engraves different items, like your name, but for me it is flowers. I’ll always keep the cutting board displayed. I think it is far to pretty to use. I’m afraid someone would scratch it.
🌸
Do you use cutting boards or just use them as display?

That means I get to go shopping for some new pieces to add to the bathroom. I am on the search for is some new open shelves to go above the toilet. If you have any suggestions on where to get some, let me know.
❤️
I wasn’t going to, but I decided to do a small Valentines table setting. I couldn’t resist the small white plates with the little red heart in the middle that I got from @williamssonoma. It was the first thing I bought after my no home decor buying for 30 days.
❤️
I love the simplicity of the table. It’s a small space, so I do not like to go to overboard on the decor. I added a little gift of candy hearts to bring together the reds and of course to eat.
❤️
Do you have any special plans for Valentines Day?

Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I clea Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I cleaned my kitchen sink area. It was filling up with daffodils and tulips and my husband said he feels like he’s in a greenhouse. I said they are bulbs, they won’t be there forever. Well they did poop out so I cleaned up my area to make more room for new plants.
🤣
You know when you take a photo and you realize something is in the wrong spot, so you fix it and take a photo again? Or maybe you see a crumb, a dog hair tumbleweed and you have to clean up and take a photo again. We’ll here’s my story.
😂
I took a photo of the kitchen sink area and I saw in the photo a smear mark on the dishwasher. So I cleaned the dishwasher. Then I took a photo again and I saw that smear mark again. So I scrubbed the dishwasher and ended up up cleaning all of my cabinets.
😂
I took the photo again and I saw that smear looking mark in my photo. What the heck? I examined the dishwasher and I’m thinking it’s so clean and smooth. I don’t get what that smear mark is. It was driving me crazy!!
🤣
Then it hit me. It was the reflection of the dog food dish in the dishwasher. Sigh.... All that scrubbing and I could have just moved the bowl. Well now I have a clean dishwasher and cabinets.
🤦‍♀️
Has this ever happened to you?

Hello Monday! We meet again!! And hello everyone! Hello Monday! We meet again!! And hello everyone! Hope you had a nice weekend. I took  advantage of the sunshine and 64 degree weather we had. I did some therapeutic yard work and I planted Pansies, Stock and Ranunculus in the garden. It felt so nice to be outside and to see flowers.
🌸
This weekend I finally repotted my Coffee Plant and Dracaena plant. They had roots growing out of the pot. I have no idea how the Dracaena (plant on right) plant survived. The roots were so dry and it was in about a 3” container.  I looked up the plant and it can grow to 10’. Not the care I gave mine. That little plant is about a year old.
🌸
If your looking for a low light, easy to care for plant that takes neglect, get a Dracaena. I’m proof that it can take neglect.
🌸
Basic repotting plant tips
1. Get a pot about 2-4” larger in diameter then the pot your current plant is in. Make sure it has a drainage hole at the bottom.
2. Use indoor potting soil, preferably organic.
3. Carefully take plant out of current pot, check if the roots are root bound, if so, try to untangle a little bit. Just be gentle.
4. Place plant in new pot with fresh indoor potting soil
5. Give a good watering
🌸
Did you watch the Super Bowl? I wasn’t a fan of the game, but I enjoyed some of the commercials. The Cheetos one with Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunas made me laugh. I didn’t care for the Doritos commercial with my man Matthew McConaughey.
🌸
Were there any commercials you liked?

It’s finally Friday! Woohoo! I always say to my It’s finally Friday!  Woohoo! I always say to myself, I’m going to sleep in, I never do. I get so excited of all the things I want to do, that I can’t sleep. This weekend I’m hoping to hit the garden store. I really want to plant some Iceland Poppies.

Since Spring is in my head, I created this cute Spring tiered tray. I got all of the gorgeous handcrafted pieces from my friend Brantley @thesassyoak. The workmanship is amazing. They are just happy, cheery pieces.

The love birds sign is my favorite. It reminds me of my two Blue Jays that frequent my yard. They are my favorite birds next to Woody of course.

How cute is that sweet little “BLOOM” banner. Eeeee, It makes me want to plant flowers so bad. Crossing fingers that I get too. You have no idea how I just love Spring!
🌷
To get these fabulous pieces and many more, be sure to check out The Sassy Oak. She has a beautiful Etsy shop.
