Just in case you thought your Thanksgiving salad had to be sad & boring, I’m here to prove you wrong! This is also fantastic for meal prepping throughout the week because the kale and Brussels sprouts are a sturdy base. Plus the dressing goes great on just about any salad! Add some rotisserie or grilled chicken for a nice hearty lunch. Yum!

Serves 6-8

FOR THE SALAD:
2 sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into 1/2 inch cubes
1 large bunch curly kale, stems removed and chopped (about 8 cups chopped)
4 cups Brussels sprouts, stems removed and thinly sliced (or buy pre-shredded)
2 honeycrisp apples, chopped into 1/2 inch cubes (about 3 cups chopped)
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
6 oz goat cheese crumbles

FOR THE DRESSING:
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Optional: 1 small clove garlic, grated or minced

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Add the chopped sweet potatoes to a large sheet pan and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for about 30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until tender and golden brown. Let cool for at least 15 minutes before adding to the salad.
In a small bowl, whisk together all ingredients for the dressing.
To a large bowl, add the chopped kale and thinly sliced Brussels sprouts. Add the dressing and use your hands to massage the dressing into the greens. Let sit for 10 minutes while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
Add the chopped apples, dried cranberries, sunflower seeds, goat cheese crumbles, and cooled roasted sweet potatoes to the salad. Toss everything together. Serve and enjoy!
