Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 sweet potatoes, spiralized
  • 4 ears sweet corn (kernels cut off the cob)
  • 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 cup chopped fresh greens – spinach, micro greens, arugula, whatever
  • 1/2 cup pepitas
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 2 individual chipotle peppers, canned in adobo sauce
  • 1 clove garlic

Method
 

  1. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sweet potato noodles and toss for 1-2 minutes until slightly softened.
  2. Wipe the skillet dry. Add the corn kernels and turn heat to medium-high. Toss every few minutes until roasted-looking.
  3. Toss the softened noodles, roasted corn, chopped cilantro, and pepitas together. Reserve some of each for topping.
  4. In a food processor, pulse 1/3 cup olive oil, 3 tbsp water, 2 chipotle peppers, and 1 garlic clove until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  5. Toss the salad with the dressing. Top with reserved ingredients for a beautiful presentation.

Notes

- For extra roasted flavor, char the corn kernels a bit more.
- Adjust chipotle pepper amount to your spice preference.
- For a meal prep option, store dressing separately until ready to serve.
