Yam Pineapple Salad image

Flavored with celery, cashews & red bell pepper, this salad is not only yummy but is so colorful and makes a lovely dish for holidays.The word yam comes from African words njam, nyami, or djambi, meaning "to eat," and was first recorded in America in 1676. I found it in an ARP magazine from chef Art Smith.

I've tried many yam salads before, but this one is by far the best. The pineapple adds a nice sweetness and the dressing is perfect.
