Roasted Sweet Potato Salad with Cranberries, Walnuts, and Goat Cheese

You know that feeling the week after the holiday season, or a vacation, when you just want a bowl full of veggies, because you haven’t had enough recently? Because I do! And salads like this are the answer. A bowl full of greens, but also sustenance — sweet potatoes, walnuts and goat cheese! And, this salad is one even veg-haters will like (said it already, but: potatoes, cheese, nuts… I mean is it even a salad? You don’t have to tell them there’s — ehem - kale under all those potatoes). Sweet potatoes are one of my favorite roots. Their flavor is SO good, and they pair well with virtually anything. They are also super rich in beta carotene (dark orange sweet potatoes have more beta carotene than carrots!) and vitamins A and C. 🙌 Ingredients: 2 medium sized sweet potatoes, roughly diced 1 tablespoon oil, such as avocado 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 6 cups kale, stems removed and torn into bite-sized pieces 1 teaspoon lemon juice 1/4 cup dried cranberries 1/3 cup walnut pieces, toasted 1/4 cup goat cheese crumbles For the vinaigrette: 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar 1 tablespoon minced shallot 1 teaspoon honey 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil 1 teaspoon dijon mustard 1/16 teaspoon salt 1/16 teaspoon ground black pepper Full recipe: http://bit.ly/2FtyqXR
