Ingredients
  • 2½ lb potato, peeled and cut into cubes ( large bite size chunks)
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 3 Tablespoons lime juice
  • ½ teaspoon agave
  • ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ⅓ cup diced red onion (very small dice)
  • 1 cup packed cilantro, roughly chopped
Instructions
  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add sweet potato chunks and simmer until fork tender, about 12-15 minutes. Drain in a colander.
