Method
- I made the cranberries ahead of time or you can use store bought!
- I cut the cranberries in half and coated them with the avocado oil + sugar. Then baked at 200F for 3 hours. Stored in the fridge until I was ready to use!
- For the sweet potatoes, I diced them and coated with the avocado oil and salt. Then baked at 400F for 40 minutes, flipping halfway through
- For the brussel sprouts, I cut them in half and coated with the avocado oil, maple syrup, garlic powder, and salt. Baked at 400F for 40 minutes
- For the kale- right before the veggies were done I added it to a bowl and drizzled avocado oil on it. I then massaged the oil into it and sprinkled salt. Delicious!
- For the maple vinaigrette, I just combined everything in a food processor.
- Assemble the salad, top with pecans and as much Parmesan as you want!
