Ingredients
Croutons:
One medium sweet potato (about 7 ounces)
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Mushrooms:
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon tamari
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
12 ounces cremini mushrooms, brushed of any dirt and thinly sliced
1 medium clove garlic, finely chopped
Tabouli:
1 small head cauliflower
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Flaky sea salt
Salad Cups:
2 heads little gem lettuce, separated into individual leaves
Directions
- For the croutons: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Peel the sweet potato and cut into small 1/2-inch cubes. Place on a baking sheet and toss with the oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Bake until they are crisp on the outside, about 20 minutes.
- For the mushrooms: In a large sauté pan, add the oil, then tip in the tamari, vinegar, thyme, mushrooms and garlic. Sauté until the juices just evaporate and the flavors infuse, 8 to 9 minutes.
- For the tabouli: In the meantime, grate the cauliflower into a mixing bowl and add the parsley, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Mix well and set aside until ready to assemble the cups.
- To assemble the salad cups, take a lettuce leaf, fill with a spoonful of the cauliflower tabouli, then a spoonful of the warm mushrooms and top with a scattering of the sweet potato croutons. Repeat with the remaining lettuce, tabouli, mushrooms and croutons.
