Enjoy this spicy hormone balancing salad, with tons of immune supporting benefits too.
Sweet potatoes are rich in beta-carotene, beneficial for health of the skin and eyes, they are high in fibre, which helps support digestive system and may help to improve blood sugar regulation which is important for maintaining hormone balance. Kale is a excellent source of fibre, iron and calcium, and contains four times the vitamin c content and twice the selenium content of spinach, as well as nutrients like vitamin E and beta-carotene. These are all important for supporting a healthy immune system.
Preheat oven to 190 deg C
Chop sweet potatoes into bite size chunks (leave skin on)
Combine potatoes with 400g drained chick peas and 1tbsp harissa paste, olive oil and salt and pepper.
Lay out onto a baking tray and roast in middle shelf oven for 25 – 30 mins.
Meanwhile prepare Kale by removing stalks and massaging with a little olive oil and salt to break down the vegetable’s fibrous texture.
Add Kale to a salad bowl, then top with the roasted veg.
Add a handful of nuts, pomegranate seeds and sliced avocado to the salad. (Squeeze a little lemon or lime on avocado to avoid browning).
Add dressing ingredients to a jam jar with lid, shake to combine and pour over the salad just before serving.
