Categories     Easy/Medium

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 lbs sweet potatoes ((2 medium or 3 smaller sweet potatoes) )
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 Tbsp maple syrup
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 bunch kale ((10 cups chopped))
1 apple (thinly sliced)
1/2 cup pecans (lightly toasted if desired)
1/2 cup dried cranberries (or pomegranate seeds)
2 oz goat cheese ((1/2 cup crumbled))
3 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 Tbsp maple syrup
1 Tbsp dijon
1 garlic clove (finely minced or pressed)
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp fine sea salt
1/8 tsp black pepper (freshly ground)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425˚F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone liner. Toast pecans on a dry skillet over medium heat, tossing frequently for a few minutes until golden and fragrant then transfer to a plate to cool.
  • Peel and dice sweet potatoes into 1/2" thick pieces and transfer them to a mixing bowl. Drizzle with 1 Tbsp olive oil, 1/2 Tbsp maple syrup, 1/2 tsp sea salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper and toss to combine.
  • Spread sweet potatoes out onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake at 425˚F for 30 minutes, flipping the sweet potatoes after 20 minutes to promote even roasting. Remove from the oven and let cool while preparing the salad.
  • In a small bowl or mason jar, combine all of the ingredients for the salad dressing in the order they are listed and thoroughly whisk together until well combined. You may need to re-whisk before dressing the salad since the dressing can separate as it sits.
  • Strip the kale leaves and discard the stems. Rinse and spin dry leaves then finely chop them into thin strips and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with 3/4 of the dressing. Toss for a few minutes with two forks until kale is slightly softened, evenly coated in dressing, and reduced by about 1/4 in volume. Let salad rest for 15 minutes while you add the remaining ingredients.
  • Scatter roasted and cooled sweet potatoes over the kale then sprinkle on remaining toppings: sliced apple, toasted and cooled pecans, dried cranberries, and crumbled goat cheese. Drizzle the top with the remaining 1/4 of the dressing or add to taste then enjoy.

10 MINUTE LOW-FAT POTATO SALAD



10 Minute Low-Fat Potato Salad image

Potato salad from scratch in just 10 minutes, and it's low fat too. I love the creamy taste of the dressing, and the olives compliment the mustards. This can easily be double to accommodate a larger family, however it would take about 5 minutes longer to prepare.
