Cooking Steps

Cook wild rice
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear. 
  • To a medium pot, add rice, broth concentrate, 1 cup (2 cups) water and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt. Bring to a boil over high. 
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 20-24 min, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. 
  • Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Roast sweet potatoes
2
  • Meanwhile, peel, then cut sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes.
  • To a parchment-lined baking sheet, add sweet potatoes, Southwest Spice Blend and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 22-23 min, flipping halfway through, until golden and tender. 
Toast pecans
3
  • Meanwhile, heat a medium non-stick pan over medium. 
  • When hot, add pecans to the dry pan. Toast for 4-5 min, stirring often, until golden. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn.) 
  • Transfer to a plate.
Prep
4
  • To a large bowl, add kale and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Season with salt.
  • Using your hands, massage oil into kale for 30 sec to soften leaves.
  • Core, then cut apple into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • To the bowl with kale, add apples and cranberries. Set aside.
Make dressing
5
  • To a small bowl, add Dijon, maple syrup, vinegar and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) oil.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
Finish and serve
6
  • Fluff rice with a fork, then season with salt.
  • To the large bowl with salad, add rice, sweet potatoes and half the dressing. 
  • Toss to combine.
  • Divide salad between bowls.
  • Drizzle remaining dressing over top.
  • Sprinkle with pecans and feta.
