Ready-Set-Serve Heritage Blend Salad with Candied Kumquats

This blend of earthy, bitter, and sweet flavors hits the mark for fall and winter salad menus.

Ingredients: 

2 large yams, peeled and sliced into rounds

2 Tbsp. olive oil

1/2 tsp. kosher salt

1/4 tsp. black pepper

1 cup kumquats, sliced

2 tsps. butter

2 tsps. sugar

16 oz. Ready-Set-Serve Heritage Blend

1 cup house-made croutons, finely chopped

2/3 cup poppy seed dressing

Instructions: 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Toss yam slices in olive oil. Arrange in four flat rounds by overlapping slices on parchment paper. Bake until nearly crisp; reserve.

Heat butter in a skillet to medium. Add kumquat slices and sprinkle sugar over all to caramelize. When sugar starts to brown, remove from heat.

Mix together Ready-Set-Serve Heritage Blend, kumquats, croutons, and poppy seed dressing. Arrange equal portions on top of baked yam rounds and serve.
