The Jewel Salad

A salad like this is super exciting to enjoy; it’s my new favorite. Add the whole grain if you want to make it a complete veggies + side dish component of your dinner. You can pair this with any balsamic vinaigrette; I like the one from VegiToss.

Directions

Prepare the Jewel Salad

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Add sweet potato cubes to a greased baking sheet. Add beets to another baking sheet. Spray veggies and sprinkle with salt. Bake for 20 minutes, or until sweet potatoes are soft.

2. Combine all dressing ingredients.

3. In a bowl, layer kale, whole grain, sweet potatoes, beets, cucumbers, pomegranate seeds, feta, dried cranberries, and sunflower seeds. Drizzle with dressing and toss before enjoying.
