How it goes together
- 01
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 F. Whisk the olive oil, honey, harissa, salt and pepper together in a medium bowl. Add the diced sweet potatoes and toss until well coated.
- 02
Step 2
Spread the sweet potatoes evenly on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-30 minutes, turning once, until soft and golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool.
Turning once helps the pieces brown evenly on both sides.

Step 3
Whisk the lime juice, honey, dijon mustard, salt and pepper together for the dressing. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, then the canola oil, whisking constantly to emulsify.
Adding the oil slowly while whisking keeps the dressing from separating.

Step 4
Toss the salad greens with dressing to taste in a large bowl. Divide between 4 plates. Top with sweet potatoes, pepitas, feta and pomegranate seeds.
