Tri Color Zoodles with Avocado Coconut Cream Salad

By Jen Paleracio | April 27, 2018

This is now my favorite salad. I love colorful whole foods, roasting vegetables brings their very essence – and the flavors are amazing! I used a canned coconut milk but the coconut cream would work just the same. The purple yam is sweet similar to the sweet potato but the deep bright color just makes you wanna eat more. In the past, I used it to make a pie and used raw nuts and dates for my crust – so great together. Purple yam is amazing for either savory or sweet recipe.
