minutesAnother summertime salad recipe, coming at ya! This is a new one I’ve been making and I think it is officially my favorite! We were out to lunch the other day & I ordered a kale salad – and it was the first time I had warm, roasted sweet potatoes on a cold salad. The contrast in flavors & temperature was AMAZING! So you know I had to come home & recreate it! This salad is so delicious – filled with nutrients & healthy things to make you feel satisfied and healthy! Feel free to add a protein on top.
