Thanksgiving Salad Recipe
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 8 ounces cold turkey or 2 servings of vegetarian turkey substitute such as
- 1/2 cup of dried cranberries
- 2 cups of string beans
- 1/2 cup of almonds
- 2 to 4 cups of mixed spinach and radicchio leaves.
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 to 2 tablespoons of a neutral oil, such as canola
- 1 lemon or orange
- Steam, green beans until still al dente. Marinate overnight in the oil and vinegar mixture. Top with almonds just before assembling the salad and plate on a bed of lettuce.
- Microwave sweet potatoes for two minutes. Slice, crisp and finish in a hot cast iron or nonstick skillet. Squeeze lemon or orange juice on the potato slices, then zest the fruit while still cooking.
- Place sweet potatoes on green beans, lettuce, and almonds.
- Skillet-cook the vegetarian protein. If using turkey, serve cold. Top the salad with the fake or real turkey and with dried cranberries.
