INGREDIENTS

  • Vegetables

    • 🍠 1 sweet potato, peeled and diced (about 2 cups)
    • 🧅 1 onion, diced
    • 1 bunch kale, stems removed and chopped

  • Oil and Seasonings

    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
    • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
    • 1 tablespoon honey, or to taste

  • Protein

    • 🥓 4 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled

  • Optional

    • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12x18-inch rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

2

Peel and dice sweet potato into 3/4-inch pieces, dice the onion, and combine with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer on the baking sheet.

3

Bake in the preheated oven until sweet potatoes are fork tender, about 20 minutes. Remove and let cool.

4

Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp (5-8 minutes). Crumble and set aside. Reserve the bacon fat for the dressing.

5

Rinse and dry kale thoroughly. Chop into bite-sized pieces and place in a large salad bowl.

6

In a jar with a lid, combine bacon fat (or other oil), apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper. Shake to create the dressing.

7

Mix kale, roasted sweet potatoes, and onions. Pour dressing over the top, toss to coat, and garnish with crumbled bacon and sunflower seeds (if using).

💡 Roast the sweet potatoes and onions a day in advance to save prep time.Use other nuts or seeds, like pecans or pumpkin seeds, if sunflower seeds are unavailable.For a vegetarian option, omit bacon and substitute with roasted chickpeas for a crunchy texture.
