Ingredients

Sunchokes
  • 1 pound sunchokes
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Salad
  • 3 to 4 large handfuls of baby or shredded spinach

  • Pinch of black pepper

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 400˚F. Give the sunchokes a good scrub and pat dry. Cut into rough ½” thick cubes. Place on a sheet tray along with the minced garlic, olive oil, and sea salt. Toss to combine. Roast for about 20 minutes, flipping halfway through. The sunchokes should be tender and browning. Remove from oven and let cool.
  2. Once the sunchokes are fairly well cooled, combine with the spinach and sunflower seeds. Combine ingredients for the dressing in a jar with tight lid; shaking until combined. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until the salad is well coated with the dressing.
