We teamed up with Yes! Apples—a woman-owned company in New York—to make a spiced sweet potato and apple salad that’s perfect for when you crave a salad with that little extra something.
Yes! Apples sent us a box of their sweet-tart SweetTango apples, which we found to be the perfect complement to the warm, nutty notes of our Cardoz Legacy Garam Masala and roasted sweet potatoes!
Together with peppery red onions and radishes, the fat and crunch of toasted walnuts, and a sweet-tart dressing made with our funky Chaat Masala, this salad is crunchy, satisfying, warming and refreshing!
This recipe was made as part of a paid partnership with Yes! Apples, Oct 2024.
