Ingredients

  • 1 large sweet potato
  • 1 large beet root
  • 1 large onion
  • 1 large red bell pepper
  • 2 medium skinless/boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 small cucumber
  • 6-8 cups of mixed green leaf lettuce
  • ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon thyme
  • ½ teaspoon garlic salt
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Wash and cube the sweet potato with the skin on. Then wash, peel, and cube the beet root. In a bowl toss both with some of the olive oil, balsamic, thyme, and garlic salt.
    prepping
  • On a large parchment paper lined baking tray spread these evenly over the entire pan. Place in a 380° F (190° C) oven for about 75 minutes.
  • Cut up the onion and red bell pepper into medium sized pieces. In the bowl, now toss these with some olive oil, balsamic, thyme, and garlic salt.
  • On a large parchment paper lined baking tray, spread the onion and pepper pieces evenly over the entire pan. Place in the oven for the last 30 minutes of the sweet potato and beet root’s cooking time.
  • While the veggies are roasting prepare the salad, cut the cucumber, and divide evenly over 2 or 3 large salad bowls.
  • Butterfly the chicken breasts and coat with a little olive oil and salt & pepper. Cook on a hot grill about 5 minutes on each side. When cooked cut the chicken into strips.
  • When the veggies are roasted, divide them evenly over the beds of salad and then top each with the chicken strips.
