Instructions
POTATOES: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400ºF. In a bowl, add the olive oil, cinnamon, cayenne, a big pinch of salt, and some freshly cracked black pepper. Stir or swirl the bowl to combine. Add the sweet potatoes to the bowl and toss until all the potatoes are lightly coated. Spread the potatoes out onto a baking sheet and roast the potatoes for 25-30 minutes or until the potatoes are tender, brown, and toasted around the edges. Make the dressing while the potatoes are cooking. Remove the potatoes and set aside.
DRESSING: combine the ingredients for the dressing in a mason jar and shake with a lid on or whisk it together in a measuring cup.
ASSEMBLE: Add the arugula to a large serving bowl, top with sweet potatoes, diced apples, goat cheese, sunflower seeds, and cranberries. Drizzle in just over half of the dressing and toss to combine. Taste and adjust with additional dressing as desired. Serve immediately How many pounds have you lost this month?
