Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Sweet Potato Wedges

- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato wedges with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Add the fresh rosemary sprigs, gently crushing them to release their aroma.
- Spread the wedges evenly on the baking sheet, making sure they don’t overlap.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through until golden brown and crispy.
Step 2: Toast the Walnuts
- While the sweet potatoes are baking, heat a small pan over medium heat.
- Add the walnuts and toast them for about 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently until they are golden and fragrant.
- Remove from heat and let them cool.
Step 3: Prepare the Salad Ingredients

- Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Step 5: Assemble the Salad
