BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND JAPANESE SWEET POTATO SALAD

 
 

 
 
I love this simple twist on thetraditional potato salad using Japanese sweet potato and squashes to not onlyadd flavor but also nutrients. Adding in other raw vegetables gives it justthat much more freshness and crispness to each bite.

 
I think I am going to catagorize this as ridiculously simple!
