Ingredients

1 Large Sweet Potato roasted
1 Large Avocado sliced
⅓ cup Sliced Almonds
½ cup Quinoa cooked
8 oz Spinach
½ cup Crispy Chickpeas or raw chickpeas rinsed and drained
½ Red pepper chopped
¼ cup Basil chopped
2 tbsp Mint chopped
2 tbsp Dill chopped

Citrus Vinaigrette

¼ cup Fresh orange juice
2 tbsp Lemon juice
½ cup Olive oil
3 tbsp White vinegar or champagne vinegar
1 tbsp Honey
½ tsp Dried oregano
¼ tsp Sea salt more to taste
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

Make The Lemon Vinaigrette: In a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients except the olive oil. Then, slowly drizzle in the olive oil and whisk until a creamy emulsion forms. Alternatively, you can add all the ingredients to a small mason jar, seal the lid, and shake vigorously to combine the ingredients. Store the dressing in the fridge until ready to use. (It can last in the fridge for up to one week.)
Assemble The Salad: Add the spinach, or greens of your choice, to a large plate. Top with pieces of remaining ingredients. Drizzle on the lemon vinaigrette, then toss the salad. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Can I make this salad ahead?

Absolutely! Save time by cooking the quinoa and roasting the sweet potatoes ahead of time. Allow both ingredients to cool before placing them in the salad. Don't toss the salad with the dressing until you're ready to serve.
