Hearty Kale Cranberry & Pecan Salad

Hearty Kale Cranberry & Pecan Salad By Linda Wagner 

Ingredients:

• 1 head of kale, ripped into small pieces
• 2 large sweet potatoes, diced & Roasted – I used a bag of pre-cut sweet potatoes from Trader Joes and roasted in the oven at 350 until brown
• 1 large avocado cut into slices
• 1/2 dried cranberries
• 1/2 cup fresh cranberries as garnish – these are optional as they are used purely for looks, don’t eat them, they are extremely bitter!!
• 1/2 cup pecans – you could also use slivered almonds or pumpkin seeds or a combination of all three!
• Raspberry vinaigrette – I used store bought (Central Market brand if you are in Texas) or this recipe would be great!

In a large bowl layer all ingredients and drizzle liberally with dressing.

That’s it!
