One of my favorite ways to meal prep is to roast veggies. I love to make tons and then use them for salads, quinoa bowls, and even pasta dishes. Typically, I post a salad a day on Instagram and Facebook, so if you are a salad fan, then follow me there. This particular salad is so tasty that I had to post it here. Plus, it goes along with my recent Chipotle Lime Rub / Wildtree series. My other salads using this Chipotle Lime Rub are here: Chipotle Lime Chickpea Salad and Southwestern Chopped Ranch Salad.

Tips: (1) Makes 2 large salads or several side-salads. (2) In order to get sweet potatoes roasted and caramelized, don’t use too much oil and roast them in a hot oven! (3) You can buy the Wildtree Chipotle Lime Rub and the Sweet Onion Dressing here.
Ingredients
- 2 sweet potatoes
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Chipotle Lime Rub
- 5 oz lettuce (I used a Baby Spinach and Baby Butter Lettuce Blend by Earthbound Farm)
- 1/2 cup edamame, shelled and steamed
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
- 1/2 cup corn, steamed
- 1 avocado
- ~4 tablespoons Wildtree Sweet Onion Dressing
Directions
-
Heat oven to 425.
-
Peel and cut sweet potato into chunks; I made 1.5cm” thick slices.
-
Place sweet potatoes in a bowl, drizzle over olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and Chipotle Lime Rub, toss well to coat, and pour onto a baking tray or cookie sheet.
-
Roast them for 10 minutes, then flip them and roast them for another 15 minutes or until golden.
- While they are roasting, cook the frozen corn, or edamame. Boil water and add frozen corn and edamame to a steam basket, and cook for 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Slice tomatoes.
- When sweet potatoes are ready, combine ingredients into a large salad bowl, add Wildtree Sweet Onion Dressing, and serve.
