Ingredients:

– 1 x bunch kale, stems removed and sliced thinly (about 2 cups)

– 1 x bunch mixed lettuce, washed and broken apart

– 1 x bunch parsley, roughly chopped

– 1/2 lemon, juiced

– Drizzle of extra virgin olive oil

– Drizzle of balsamic vinegar

– 1x medium sweet potato, peeled and diced

– 1x can organic chickpeas, drained and rinsed

– 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil

– 1 tsp paprika

– 1/2 red onion, sliced

– 2 tbsp Love Your Guts Ginger & Beetroot Sauerkraut

– Sprinkle of sesame seeds

– Salt & pepper to taste

Method:

1. Preheat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
2. Line a baking tray and spread out the chickpeas. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle with paprika, salt, and pepper, then toss to coat.
3. On another tray, spread out the diced sweet potato. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss to coat evenly.
4. Bake both trays in the oven for around 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Once done, remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.
5. In a large bowl, combine the kale, mixed lettuce, and parsley. Dress with lemon juice, a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. Toss to mix.
6. Add the roasted sweet potato, chickpeas, sliced red onion, and pink apple to the salad. Top with WholeLife Healthfoods Cranberry & Nut Mix and Organic Pepitas.
