Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 475F. Toss cubed sweet potato in a small bowl with maple syrup, brown sugar and soy sauce. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick spray (I used the foil + cooking spray to make clean-up easier but if you have a preferred method for roasting that would work too). Arrange potatoes on sheet in a single layer and roast until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork (20-25 minutes in my oven).

In the meantime, combine chopped cucumber, peppers, tomato and mango. On a large cutting board, chop lettuce into small pieces and toss in a large bowl with mango mixture. Once cooled, top salad with potatoes and drizzle with your dressing of choice
