Place the chunks of sweet potato in a baking tin and drizzle on the olive oil. Sprinkle on the salt and pepper and toss everything together. Cook in the oven for 20-25 minutes until tender.
2 medium sweet potatoes, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
Whilst the potatoes are roasting, cook the quinoa according to the packet instructions, but also crumble in the stock cube for extra flavour. (For this amount of quinoa, I'd boil 360ml (1 1/2 cups) water, add the quinoa and stock cube, then cover and simmer for approx. 20 mins before fluffing with a fork.)
120 g (2/3 cup) dry quinoa, 1 chicken or vegetable stock cube
Whisk together the vinaigrette ingredients in a small bowl.
2 tsp white wine vinegar, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, 3 tsp honey, pinch salt and pepper, 5 tbsp olive oil
Place the warm quinoa, roasted sweet potato, pomegranate, goats cheese, and chopped herbs in a large bowl.
seeds from one pomegranate, 1 log of soft goats cheese, large bunch mixed herbs
Toss everything together, then drizzle on the vinaigrette and serve.
