Sweet Potato-Edamame Salad
Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- ¼ cup water
- 1 cup shelled frozen edamame
- 1 small red bell pepper
- ¼ cup refrigerated ginger dressing
- 3 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
- ½ cup sliced fresh green onions
Steps
- Peel potatoes and cut into ¼-inch cubes. Place potatoes and water in microwave-safe bowl and cover; microwave on HIGH 3–4 minutes. Stir in edamame; microwave 4–5 more minutes until potatoes and edamame are tender. Drain and let stand to cool 5 minutes.

Thyme Pork with Cherry Sauce
Ingredients
- ½ cup sherry vinegar
- ¼ cup honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon chipotle hot sauce
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- 1 cup fresh cherries
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 4 (1-inch-thick) boneless pork chops (about 2 lb)
Steps
- Preheat grill (or grill pan) on medium-high. Combine in medium saucepan: vinegar, honey, mustard, hot sauce, paprika, and ½ teaspoon salt; bring to a simmer on medium-low. Pit cherries and chop, then add to sauce; cook 7–8 more minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thickened and cherries are soft (sauce will thicken as it cools). Meanwhile, chop thyme.
- Combine thyme, oil, pepper, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt; coat pork on both sides with mixture (wash hands). Grill pork 4–5 minutes on each side until pork is 145°F. Serve with cherry sauce.
Serving Suggestions
- Complete your meal with fresh salad blend, gluten-free bread, and fresh fruit for dessert.
- If cherries aren't in season, you can substitute frozen cherries; no need to thaw, just check for pits and add to the sauce.
