Health and fertility benefits of Orange-Honey-Sweet Potato Salad

Researchers believe that cranberries contain substances that prevent infection-causing bacteria from sticking to the urinary tract walls. However, store-bought cranberry juice is typically all sugar - so make sure to stick with straight cranberries. One tbsp of honey has a glycemic index (GI) of 55.

Ingredients

1 1/2 lb dark-orange sweet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (4 cups)
1/2 cup sliced celery (1 stalk)
1/3 cup sweetened dried cranberries
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
1 container (6 oz) Yoplait® Original yogurt orange crème

Instructions

In 2-quart saucepan, place potatoes; add enough water to cover potatoes. Heat to boiling over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low; simmer 9 to 11 minutes or until potatoes are fork-tender. Drain; cool 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in large bowl, mix remaining ingredients.
Gently stir cooled potatoes into celery mixture until well coated. Refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.
