Fifty posts and between us only one salad.  Impressive of sorts!  

Salad number two is lentil, cheese (feta or similar) mixed greens including spinach and roasted sweet potato.  The dressing is olive oil and balsamic.

1/2 tsp smoked paprika

1/2 tsp cumin (optional)

1 TBSP olive or avocado oil

Other Salad Ingredients:

150g feta cheese, diced

200g pack of mixed leaf salad

Salad Dressing:

2 TBSP Balsamic

2 TBSP olive oil

Toss sweet potato and onion in spices and oil, roast at 180 Celsius for 20 minutes, turning once.

Stir the roast veges and warm cooked lentils together.  Add cheese, mixed leaves and dressing.

Tip: Sweet potato, carrot or squash will work here (i've tried them all!)
