This sounds so good to me, with bacon, pineapple, Dijon mustard and macadamia nuts for some of the ingredients. Don't want to lose this from "Soup to Nuts."

I made this for a volunteer appreciation hawaiian luncheon. People enjoyed it and thought it to be a nice change from regular potato salad. I used yams instead of sweet potatoes and that worked well. Thank you for the recipe!
