- 5 Medium North Carolina sweetpotatoes, cut into 1" cubes
- 1 tsp Chipotle powder
- 2 tsp Chili powder
- 1 tbsp Smoked paprika
- 1 tsp Ground cumin
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Oregano
- 1/2 tsp Ground coriander powder
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Pepper
- 3 tbsp Olive oil, divided
- 2 cups Chopped kale
Dressing
- 6 tbsp Red wine vinegar
- 2 tsp Dijon mustard

- 2 tbsp Fresh chopped parsley
- 2 tbsp Fresh chopped cilantro
- 2 tbsp Raw honey or agave
- 1/2 cup Light olive oil
- 1/2 tsp Sea salt

Preheat the oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
In a large bowl, toss the sweetpotato chunks with 2 tablespoons olive oil and the chipotle powder, chili powder, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, oregano, coriander, salt and pepper. Spread on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature. While it’s cooling, place the kale in a large bowl and add 1 tablespoon of light olive oil. Use your fingers to massage the kale until softened. Add the sweetpotatoes to the kale and set aside to make the dressing.
Add all of the dressing ingredients to a jar with a lid and shake well.
Toss the dressing with the cooled sweetpotatoes and kale. Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
