Ingredients

  • 2 cups (266 g) roasted sweet potato - diced
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • 5 cups (335 g) Tuscan Kale
  • 1.5 cups (300 g) cooked beluga lentils
  • 1 cucumber - finely sliced
  • 6 radishes - sliced
  • 2 tbsp almonds - chopped
  • ½ cup (23.5 g) fresh dill
  • vegan feta - optional

Maple Mustard Dressing

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 390 F (200 C). In a bowl, combine the sweet potato, Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO), and paprika. Spread the mixture on a baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes. Once done, set aside to cool down.
  • While the sweet potato is baking, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, combine the wholegrain mustard, Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO), lemon juice, finely diced shallot, and maple syrup. Stir until well combined.
  • Prepare the kale by removing the stem and chopping it into small strips. Place the chopped kale in a large bowl, add half of the dressing, and massage the kale with your hands to soften it.
  • Add the cooled sweet potatoes, cooked beluga lentils, sliced cucumber, sliced radishes, chopped almonds, fresh dill, and plant-based feta (if using) to the bowl with the kale. Pour the remaining dressing over the salad and mix well to combine. Serve and enjoy!
