2 Large Sweet Potatoes, cubed
1 Small Red Onion, cut in half and thinly sliced
2-3 Tbsp, Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
Sea Salt
Ground Black Pepper
½ C Dried Cranberries
½ C Crumbled Goat or Feta Cheese
¼ C Fresh Chopped Parsley
2 C Massaged Kale chopped in bite size pieces

Dressing:
2 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
1 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
1 Tbsp Honey
½ Tsp Ground Cumin
¼ Tsp Ground Paprika
¼ C Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss the sweet potatoes and red onion in oil and then season with salt and pepper.
Distribute them evenly on the baking sheet in a single layer. Bake until they are tender, about 30 min. Let cool for 10 minutes and then place in a large bowl.
While the potatoes and onions are baking, make the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey and spices. Gradually pour in the olive oil while whisking until combined well. Add a little salt and pepper to season.
Now mix it all together! Toss the sweet potato and onion mixture with the chicken, kale, parsley, cranberries and goat cheese. Serve warm! Yum!!
