This is my last "Brazilian" post for our trip Around the World this month. Unfortunately, I didn't get to make any desserts, which my daughter was really excited about! It's gotten very busy though with summer vacation arriving. Hopefully next month we'll have some tasty desserts to share! This potato salad was different than any we'd had before. It called for sweet potatoes and black beans.....yes, more black beans! But it was so tasty! This was my husband's favorite dish. He thought it could even be a main dish by adding some cooked salmon. The kids weren't big fans. My daughter isn't a big fan of sweet potatoes to begin with and my son is an extremely picky eater. However, I will definitely be making this potato salad again!
