Sweet Potato, Avo and Quinoa Salad, recipe by Hayden Quinn

Ingredients

Herby yoghurt dressing

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C fan-forced. Place the sweet potato on a oven tray and drizzle with olive oil.
  2. Season with salt and bake for 20 minutes or until golden. Set aside to cool completely.
  3. Rinse the quinoa and add to a pot with 1½ cups of water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil before turning down to a simmer.
  4. Cook for 15–20 minutes or until the water has absorbed. Remove from the heat and allow to cool completely.
  5. To make the dressing, combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and season with salt to taste. Adjust the flavour to your liking.
  6. Toss all of the salad ingredients together except for the avocado and present in a bowl or on a platter. Top with sliced avocado and pour over half of the dressing, serving the rest on the side.
