Notes

The quickest and best way we found to cook Sweet potatoes is in the Air Fryer.
Be sure to let the sweet potatoes cool before tossing it in the salad so it doesn't wilt the greens.
Similarly with the wild rice, it's an optional ingredient. If you're using it, likewise make sure you cool it off before adding to the salad.
Make the dressing up to 14 days in advance, as it stays tasty in the fridge. You'll use this salad dressing on many other salads.
You can swap salad ingredients, add more or less ot your taste.
Add some protein to this salad to make it a full meal if you'd like.
To brighten this salad, make it a Greek or Mediterranean one. Use Greek Salad Dressing adding Feta cheese, pomegranate and nuts.
You can also make this salad similar to the Roasted Butternut Squash, and layer it over arugula.
Yams, purple sweet potatoes or any type would work in this recipe.
