Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 batch Perfect Pan-Seared Chicken 
  • 6 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
  • 4 hard cooked eggs
  • 8 cups thinly sliced lacinato kale 
  • 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and diced 
  • Neutral oil (as needed)
  • 1 tsp Cumin
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp Onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp Smoked paprika
  • Sea salt (as needed)
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese (more as desired)
  • 1 batch creamy honey mustard dressing (see below)

Creamy Honey Mustard Dressing: 

  • 2 tbsp Neutral oil (like avocado)
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • 1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Mayonnaise
  • 1/4 tsp Sea salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400. Toss peeled and cubed sweet potatoes with all seasonings (including a generous sprinkle of sea salt) and enough oil to coat.
  2. ​Spread over a large baking sheet and bake in pre-heated oven for 20 minutes. Flip and bake an additional 10-15 minutes until lightly crispy on the edges and cooked through.
  3. ​Arrange bacon on a baking sheet lined with a baking rack or parchment paper. Cook bacon in oven alongside sweet potatoes in the last 15-20 minutes of cooking.
  4. ​While sweet potatoes are cooking, cook hard cooked eggs (if not already prepped) and pan-seared chicken (see component recipe).
  5. ​To assemble kale salad, whisk or shake all dressing ingredients in a small jar. Place washed and dried (dry well!) kale in a large bowl. Add enough dressing to coat and using hands, massage for 2-3 minutes until kale wilts slightly.
  6. ​To assemble salads, arrange bowls with kale, sweet potatoes, hard cooked eggs, bacon, red onion and blue cheese.
