WILTED SPINACH SALAD WITH ROASTED KUMARA (SWEET POTATO)
My daughter made me this salad once. She said that it was from the Meal-in-a-minute TV advert but this version doesn't use any Watties products. (Not that there is anything wrong with bottled sauces but I prefer to make my own dressing) This is a nice easy recipe that makes a good side dish to some steamed fish.

ROASTED SWEET POTATO SALAD WITH RED PEPPER VINAGRETTE
I LOVE sweet potatoes, and this is quite possible the most brilliant combination of flavors with sweet potatoes I have ever seen. Unlike a traditional potato salad, which is best chilled, this is best served slightly warm or at room temperature. It's a delicious paring with just about anything southwestern, but also goes well with salmon.
