  • 2 medium sweet potatoes
  • ¼ cup pine nuts
  • 2 teaspoons whole grain mustard
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Pierce the sweet potatoes several times with the tines of a fork. Put the sweet potatoes on a sheet pan and bake until tender, 35 to 45 minutes.

Put the pine nuts in a small skillet and toast, tossing often, over medium heat until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
