Roasted Sweet Potato and Farro Salad

If you’re looking for an easy and super delicious side for Thanksgiving, I gotchu 🙂 

Roasted sweet potato, massaged kale, chopped walnuts, goat cheese and a maple dressing makes this loaded salad the perfect healthy and filling dish. It’s also easy to make ahead and throw together when you need to! We are planning to head to my parents this year in MA, and since I still don’t know how to make a turkey, I think I will be bringing this 😉
