Why Massage The Kale?

You may hear of people ‘massaging the kale’ before using it in salads. What that means is just massaging the kale with your hands, along with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt. This step makes the kale tender, and much more enjoyable to eat. It also gives the kale a vibrant color!

Honey Dijon Dressing:

The dressing just may be our favorite part! It’s sweet from the honey, tangy from the dijon, creamy from the mayonnaise, and so so good! All you have to do is whisk your ingredients together in a bowl until combined, and pour that amazing dressing over the bowl!

Instructions

To Make Roasted Sweet Potatoes:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a bowl toss together cubed sweet potatoes, olive oil, salt, and ground cinnamon.

3. Spread the potatoes out onto the lined baking sheet and bake them for 20 minutes until fully cooked, then broil them for 2 minutes until lightly crisp.

To Make Honey Dijon Dressing:

1. While the potatoes are roasting, make the dressing. Whisk together mayo, dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and honey until well combined.

For Salad:

1. To a serving bowl add your kale along with salt and olive oil. Massage the salt and oil into the kale for about 2 minutes. Doing this will break up its tough texture and make it more palatable.

2. To the bowl add your wild rice, cooked sweet potatoes, chicken, chopped apple, dried cranberries, and feta. Pour on your dressing and toss that all together.

3. Serve and enjoy!
