At The Table
Winter Spinach Salad
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, coconut sugar, garlic powder, cinnamon, and cayenne powder. Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and pour the coconut oil mixture over the top. Toss well. Salt and pepper to taste. Roast for 20-30 minutes until the sweet potatoes are tender, tossing halfway through.
- While the sweet potatoes are cooking, you can toast the pecans on the stovetop: Add pecans to a pan and place over medium heat, stirring occasionally for 3-6 minutes until pecans are fragrant and slightly golden brown on the edges. Remove from heat and transfer to a cutting board. After a few minutes, roughly chop the pecans into big pieces. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, add the spinach, pomegranate seeds, pear slices, and cooked sweet potatoes. Top with toasted pecans and feta crumbles. Drizzle with desired amount of dressing, then toss to coat. Add to bowls. Top with extra pecans and goat cheese if desired.
