Sweet Potato and Chickpea Salad - Healthy salad :)

Made a yummy salad last night and thought I would share.

1 large sweet potato (orange/gold) about 400g
1 large onion
1/2 cup of low fat natural yoghurt
2 tbs coriander
1 tbs lemon juice
1 x 400g of chickpeas
60g of rocket

Dice the sw. potato into 1.5cm cube. Cut onion into wedges.  Put on a baking tray and spray with olive oil and bake in oven (180 degrees C) for about 25 minutes or until cooked (when you can poke the sw. potato with a fork and its soft enough to skewer).

When this is cooked let it cool for about about 5 to 10 minutes then place in a salad bowl.

Drain can of chickpeas (rinse them with water if you like) then place them in the salad bowl as well.  Wash rocket and add to salad bowl.

Combine yoghurt, lemon juice and coriander (i use the squeezy tube of coriander but you can use fresh as well) in a bowl and then mix through the salad.

You are ready to serve and eat.

YUMMY!
