American 20 Mins Prep · 45 Mins Cook
- Preheat the oven to 200°C, gas mark 6.
- Peel and halve the baby carrots. Roughly cube the sweet potatoes leaving the skin on. Place the carrots and potatoes on a rimmed baking tray. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with the salt. Toss to coat and place in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until caramelised and cooked through.
- Place the stock in a medium pot over a high heat and bring to a boil. Add the amaranth and quinoa and lower the heat to a gentle simmer. Cook for approx. 15 minutes or until tender and all the stock has been absorbed. Remove from the heat and place on a serving platter. Set aside to cool.
- Zest and juice the lemon. Place the lemon juice, yoghurt, chlorella, nutritional yeast, herbs (parsley, dill, mint and coriander), baby spinach, 1 tablespoon of oil, capers, garlic and iodised salt in a blender or food processor and pulse until smooth.
- Slice the apple into matchsticks. Rinse the rocket. Crumble the goat cheese. Roughly chop the almonds.
- Toss together the amaranth, quinoa, apple and rocket. Arrange the goat’s cheese (or vegan feta cheese) on top with the almonds and drizzle over the dressing.
