Directions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Cut the sweet potatoes into medium chunks and spread them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
- Roast the potatoes until they’re tender and lightly browned, about 15–20 minutes.
- Rinse and drain the black beans, then pat them dry with paper towels.
- In a small bowl, whisk together minced garlic, lime juice, olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, cumin, salt, and pepper for the dressing.
- Rinse and dry the arugula, then set aside.
- Seed and dice the red bell pepper into medium pieces for the salad.
- To serve, place a bed of arugula on each plate, top with roasted potatoes, beans, and diced pepper, then drizzle with the dressing.
Two tips
- Prep the potatoes up to the roasting step earlier in the day and refrigerate until ready to bake.
- If you want a brighter finish, squeeze a little extra lime over the salad just before serving.
