Here is a kale salad that has an interesting twist to it. The sweet potato “croutons” are that twist. Sweet potatoes are thinly sliced then light breaded in panko breadcrumbs then pan sautéed until golden brown. These “croutons” top a shaved kale salad along with tender quinoa, pear slices, chopped dates, raisins, and toasted pistachios; all dressed in a maple syrup apple vinaigrette. A perfectly balanced salad for the winter. We suggest adding a grilled chicken breast to make this salad a bit meatier. Enjoy.
