SIMPLE SWEET POTATO KALE SIDE SALAD

The perfect salad to serve as a side or bring to a get-together, during the fall and winter months!!!
Serves 6

YOU'LL NEED:

  • 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch chunks
  • olive oil, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons corn starch
  • S&P, to taste
  • 1 bunch kale, stemmed
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1/2 red onion, finely diced
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1/2 cup parmesan, shredded
  • option: add meat or protein of choice to make it a meal!

HERE'S HOW:

  • Preheat oven to 425. Toss diced sweet potatoes in olive oil, corn starch, and salt. Spread sweet potatoes out on a rimmed backing dish in a single layer (the more space they have, the crispier they'll get). Bake in oven, flipping potatoes every 15 minutes until cooked through and crispy on the edges.
  • While sweet potatoes cook, prep kale and red onion. In a small bowl or jar with lid, pour 1/4 cup (or less or more to taste), lemon juice, and salt and pepper. Whisk or shake together.
  • In a large bowl, add kale, sweet potatoes, onions, pumpkin seeds, and parmesan. Toss together with your olive oil dressing and enjoy!
