PREP TIME COOK TIME TOTAL TIME

10 minutes 30 minutes 40 minutes

Ingredients
Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Brussel Sprouts:
8 ounces brussels sprouts, halved
1 small sweet potato, chopped into ½-inch cubes
2 Tbsp avocado oil
½ tsp paprika
½ tsp sea salt, to taste

For the Salad:

5 ounces Spring greens, or greens of choice
1 avocado, sliced
¼ small red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup feta cheese
¼ cup sunflower seeds
⅓ cup dried cranberries

Cinnamon Balsamic Dressing:

1/3 cup avocado oil
 ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
1 very small clove of garlic, peeled and minced
1 Tbsp pure maple syrup
2 tsp stone ground mustard
½ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp sea salt, to taste

Instructions
Roast The Vegetables:
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the chopped vegetables on a baking
sheet, drizzle with avocado oil and sprinkle with paprika and sea salt. Use your
hands to toss everything together until well-coated in oil and seasoning. Roast
for 20 to 25 minutes, giving the baking sheet a shake half-way through, or until
the vegetables are golden-brown and cooked through.
2. You can either serve the salad with the vegetables still warm, or you can allow
them to cool to room temperature or chill them in the refrigerator before
serving. The choice is yours!

Make the Dressing:

1. Add all of the ingredients for the dressing to a small blender (I use my Magic
Bullet) and blend until combined. If you don’t have a small blender, simply
whisk everything together until it’s creamy. Store the dressing in a sealed jar
until ready to use. You can make the dressing up to 10 days in advance and it
becomes more flavorful over time!

Prepare the Salad:

1. Add the ingredients for the salad to a large serving bowl and add the roasted
vegetables. Drizzle in your desired amount of cinnamon balsamic dressing and
toss until everything is coated in dressing. Serve and enjoy!
