Directions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Toss potatoes with 1/2 Tbsp oil, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
- Spread out on a baking sheet, lined with parchment, in upper 1/3 of oven.
- Roast the potatoes, stirring once or twice, until tender and browned, 15 – 20 minutes.
- While the potatoes are cooking, place the bite size torn pieces of kale in a large bowl. Add thinly sliced red onions to bowl and toss..
- As soon as potatoes are finished roasting, place hot potatoes over prepared kale and quickly cover salad bowl with a plate or the baking sheet (it doesn’t have to fit perfectly)
- Let covered potatoes and kale stand for about five minutes while preparing dressing.
- Whisk oil, vinegar, garlic, honey, mustard, and salt and pepper in a small bowl.
- Uncover kale-potato mix and add cranberries, crumbled cheese, and salad dressing; toss to combine. Serve immediately (but it is also delicious cold).
