4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled & cut into 1 inch pieces - you should have about 6 cups of sweet potato (I like to cut them a little bit smaller than 1 inch)
1 red pepper, seeded & cut into 1 inch pieces
2 T. balsamic vinegar
4 tsp. olive oil
1 tsp. dried basil
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
Dressing:
1 T. balsamic vinegar
1 T. olive oil
1 tsp. dijon mustard
1 T. maple syrup
1 tsp. minced garlic
4 scallions, thinly sliced
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a large baking tray with foil & spray with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the sweet potatoes, red pepper, vinegar, oil, basil, salt & pepper; mix well. Spread in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden. (I find that it takes longer than 30 minutes for the sweet potatoes to get nicely soft & browned.) Remove from oven & let cool.
Meanwhile, combine vinegar, oil, mustard, maple syrup, & garlic in a large bowl. Add sweet potatoe mixture and scallions & toss to mix well. Serve chilled or at room temp. Keeps for 2-3 days in the fridge.

Can I use regular mustard? I don't want to go buy another one.

It would probably be good with regular mustard. I haven't tried it though.

sounds Very Yummy. Thank you, I would like to try it!
DH recently baked sweet potatoes. He added honey, raisins, and chopped walnuts leftover from Pesach. Dont have an exact recipe but it was wonderful!

can you make it without the scallions or are they crucial to the flavor?

I don't like scallions, so made it without. We loved it!

I followed the directions, but they've been in the oven on 425 for 2 HOURS!!! They are just about done, thank goodness. I must get my fish in.

Random & suzyq, so glad you enjoyed this recipe! 
Bubby, so sorry you had that aggravation of it taking so long to bake. I haven't made this in a while, but I also remember being frustrated that it took so long in the oven. The next time I made it I cut the pieces smaller so that it wouldn't take as long. Was it at least enjoyed after all that? Hope so!

I loved it!! I displayed it a la George (a professional chef) - some angel hair pasta on a pretty china plate, then some of the sweet potato salad, topped by seared sea bass. It wasn't really professional like George does it, but it still looked nice.
So I had a lot left over & served it to the hungry bochrim who came for lunch. Much as they fell on it, it seemed to breed. I still have a lot left over. Guess what's for dinner tomorrow?
