  • 132 mL 132 mL (132 g) water
  • 13 cup 13 cup (57 g) dry quinoa
  • 132 mL 132 mL (132 g) water

In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir in the quinoa, and when the water returns to a boil, lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and keep covered a further 5 minutes. Fluff the quinoa with a fork.

  • 5 oz 5 oz (151 g) sweet potatoes
  • 1 tsp 1 tsp (4 g) extra-virgin olive oil
  • 5 oz 5 oz (151 g) sweet potatoes
  • 1 tsp 1 tsp (4 g) extra-virgin olive oil

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Slice the sweet potato in half lengthwise. Brush the cut sides with olive oil, then place face down on a small baking sheet. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the flesh feels tender but not mushy when you insert a small sharp knife into the potato. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool. Peel off the skin and discard. Cut the sweet potato into 1/2-inch cubes.

  • 1 clove 1 clove garlic
  • 2 Tbsp 2 Tbsp (30 g) apple cider vinegar

In a blender, combine the garlic, vinegar, maple syrup, and mustard. Process on medium-high speed until smooth and well combined, 15 to 20 seconds. Stop the blender and scrape down the sides of the jar with a spatula as needed.
