Ingredients:
Salad
- 3 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed (about 2 lb)
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced into half-moons
- 2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 Tbsp honey
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/4 tsp ground paprika
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
Directions:
- Roast. Preheat oven to 400°F. On a large rimmed sheet pan, toss sweet potatoes and red onion with 2 Tbsp olive oil, a good pinch of salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer.
- Bake. Roast until tender and lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes, then transfer to a large bowl.
- Whisk the dressing. In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk vinegar, mustard, honey, cumin, and paprika. Slowly whisk in 1/4 cup olive oil until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper.
- Toss and serve. Add dressing to the warm vegetables, then fold in cranberries, feta, and parsley. Serve warm or at room temperature.

- More crunch: add a handful of toasted walnuts or pecans for heart-healthy fats.
- Dairy-free: skip the feta and add diced avocado or toasted pumpkin seeds.
- Lower sodium: use reduced-sodium feta and salt lightly; the mustard and vinegar keep flavors bright.
- Meal prep: roast the vegetables and whisk the dressing up to 2 days ahead; toss just before serving.
- Easy prep: parchment on the pan helps with cleanup; pre-cut sweet potatoes save wrist and knife work.
