If you're like us, then odds are you'll  be heading to several family dinners over the next few weeks. I'm always looking for a fresh healthy side dish recipe, but this one remains one of my all time favorites! This is "paleo-friendly" Sweet Potato Bacon Salad, and it's pretty quick and easy to whip up!

Ingredients: 3 large sweet potatoes, 2 bell peppers, 1 onion, 1 lb turkey bacon, and fresh parsley.

Vinaigrette: 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/2 tbsp. dijon mustard, 1/2 tbsp. chopped garlic, 3 tbsp. EVOO, 1 heaping tbsp. fresh chopped parsley


--> Directions: cut veggies into 1 inch wedges, brush lightly with EVOO, and place on grill until you get nice grill marks, continue to cook for a few more minutes until veggies are cooked through but not mushy. Cut cooked veggies into bite sized pieces and mix with crumbled cooked bacon. Mix vinaigrette, add to salad, and toss, topping it with a pinch of fresh parsley. Serve and enjoy
