Ingredients

  • 3 cups of spinach leaves
  • ½ cup of chopped celery
  • ½ cup of chopped red bell pepper
  • ½ cup of chopped cucumber
  • 2 boiled eggs
  • 1 medium sweet potato boiled and cooled
  • 1 tsp of vegetable oil
  • Dressing
  • 1 serving of the Creamy Cilantro Dressing (see notes below the video)

Instructions

  • Start by grilling the sweet potatoes. It is important after boiling the sweet potato that it has cooled so it won’t fall apart when sliced. Cut the sweet potato in three lengthwise, then cut each piece in half and each half in thirds.
  • Using a non-stick frying pan, heat the vegetable oil, add the sweet potato pieces and let them brown. Using two spatulas, carefully turn the sweet potato so all three sides are browned.
  • Cut each egg lengthwise in four pieces.
  • On a large plate arrange the spinach leaves in an even layer, spread the celery, bell peppers, cucumber, the boiled eggs and the sweet potato. Top it all with the creamy cilantro dressing and serve. Enjoy!
