Sweet potato, spinach Salad


Ingredients
1 sweet potato, chopped
Mushrooms
Baby spinach
Olive oil
Cayenne pepper
Cinnamon
Nutmeg
Raisins
Balsamic Vinaigrette

Directions
Place sweet potato and mushrooms in microwave-safe bowl. Season to taste with cinnamon and nutmeg.
Place bowl in microwave on high for three to three and half minutes. Add spinach to bowl and season to taste with cayenne pepper. remove and enjoy!

My twist on the recipe seen on Dr Oz. The original version wasn't so good adding the raisins and light dressing is HUGE improvement. And cooking the potatoes longer 2 minutes wasn't enough. I think dried cranberries would be yummy too.
