Winter Salad: Kale, Chickpea & Sweet Potato w/ Honey Tahini Dressing
1m 16s
We have no words to explain how good this salad is, honestly! Roasting the sweet potato, chickpea and sesame seeds together creates the most delicious flavour. The combination of the feta, sweet nutty dressing and crunchy kale with the freshness of the carrot and cucumber; it all works so incredibly well together.
This is the opposite of a sad salad. It's filling, comforting and bursting with flavour. We really encourage you to try this one and we hope you will love it just as much as we do.
Ingredients:
2 Sweet Potatoes (peeled & chopped)
1 Can Chickpeas (drained, rinsed & patted dry)

1 Carrot (ribbons or grated)
75g Feta (crumbled)

2) Add the sweet potato, chickpeas, sesame seeds, smoked paprika and olive oil to a lined baking tray and combine well. Season with salt.
3) Bake for 30 - 35 minutes or until just starting to brown nicely.
4) Meanwhile, combine the kale, carrot and cucumber in a large bowl. Season with salt & pepper.
