Sweet Potato and Spinach Salad with Cranberries

Many of you may be aware of Wegmans.  It is a grocery store that started here in Rochester.  With the help of Danny Wegman it is in quite a few states in the North East.  And man do these people know how to market.  Every trip to the grocery store is filled with foodie inspiration.  I wander up and down the aisles ina food daze.  And I am not the only one.  I see others in there own world too.

They have an area where you can get take out dinners of all kinds.  This salad was featured a month or so ago and I could not take my eyes off of it.  I never bought it because I was trying to not spend the extra money.  I decided to make it myself.  In the store they have it with butternut squash- I used sweet potatoes instead.
