Sweet Potato and Macadamia Nut Salad
Healthy, because
Even smarter
Nutritional values
Sweet potatoes provide us with a lot of beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A. This fat-soluble vitamin is indispensable for healthy eyes, among other things. The crunchy nuts contain many healthy unsaturated fatty acids and cell-protecting vitamin E.
The colourful filling salad tastes even fresher if you add a bunch of rocket or lamb's lettuce. Both also provide plenty of folic acid. The B vitamin is involved in cell renewal and blood formation, among other things.
