- 1 medium sweet potato cubed
- 1 15-oz can chickpeas
- 4 cups kale washed, deveined, and chopped
- 1 apple chopped
- 1/4 cup almonds chopped
- 1/4 cup vegan feta or goat cheese

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Prepare the wild rice according to package directions. Fluff with a fork and set aside to cool slightly.
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Spread the chickpeas on one sheet and the sweet potatoes on the other. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, tossing to coat evenly.
- Roast for 20-25 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and the chickpeas are lightly crisped.
- While the vegetables roast, wash, devein, and chop the kale. Transfer to a large bowl, add the lemon juice, and massage with your hands for 30-60 seconds.
- Chop the apples and almonds and set aside.
- In a small bowl or jar, combine the dressing ingredients and whisk (or shake) until smooth and emulsified.
- Divide the kale among bowls and top with wild rice, roasted sweet potatoes, chickpeas, apples, almonds, and vegan feta or goat cheese. Drizzle with dressing just before serving.
