Instructions

Preheat oven to 425˚F. Cut the sweet potato into ½” cubes and place on a sheet tray along with the olive oil, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt. Toss to combine then place in the oven and roasted for 30 to 40 minutes. The sweet potatoes should be tender and browning. Let cool before adding to the salad.
While the sweet potatoes are roasting, melt the butter in a small pan. Add the crushed hazelnuts and cook for 2 or so minutes, until the hazelnuts are toasted and fragrant. Remove the pan from the heat and add in the lemon juice, maple syrup, and salt. Swirl to combine and let cool slightly.
Combine the cooled sweet potatoes with the lettuce and dressing. Toss to combine and serve.

Notes

Tips + Tricks: Butter lettuce is my favorite. The texture is soft and the lettuce has flavor. However, if you can't find butter lettuce, look for another head of lettuce in the store.
