  • 400.0g orange sweet potatoes , cut into slices
  • olive oil
  • 50.0g baby spinach
  • 2.0 tbsp pine nuts , toasted

  • 1.0 tbsp clear honey
  • 0.5 tbsp wholegrain mustard

  2. Heat the barbecue and cook the sweet potato slices for a few minutes each side, carefully turning only once, until completely tender and very chargrilled.

  3. Toss the spinach, pine nuts and red onion together and scatter over a large serving platter. Top with the feta.

  5. Pile the sweet potato on top of the salad and drizzle with the dressing.
