    3      large         sweet potatoes -- cubed
    1      large         russet potatoes -- diced
    1      medium        vidalia onion -- diced
    1      large         carrot -- shredded
    2      large         eggs, hard-boiled -- diced
    1      cup           mayonnaise-type salad dressing
 
 *****this is the classic way to prepare perfect potatoes******
 cut up potatoes as directed and simmer in lightly salted water till slightly 
 tender(should still be "tough").
 Drain quickly and immediately return to pot and cover w/ dish towel.   
 Allow to "steam" in their own heat and juice till completely cooled to room 
 temp. this will produce perfect Boiled potatoes everytime.
 
 Once potaotes are coled to room temp. mix all ingredients together and chill 
 overnight or at least 4 hours.
 Do _NOT_ add Mayo or mayonnaise-type salad dressing to warm potatoes!

 NOTES : Someone on the MC-Recipies list was looking for a recipie for sweet 
 Potato Salad. I could not find one for them so I tried making my own.
 Made this last night and it came out great.
 (I ate a pint of it on the commute into work this morning).
