Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dijon mustard
1 tsp maple syrup
dash of salt
dash of freshly ground black pepper
3 cups (1/2-inch) cubed peeled sweet potato
cooking spray
3/4 tsp salt, divided
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 lb sea scallops
6 cups gourmet salad greens
1 cup seedless red grapes, halved
1 large red bell pepper , cut into thin strips
1/4 cup pecans, toasted

Directions:

To prepare vinaigrette, combine first 6 ingredients, stirring with a whisk.
Preheat oven to 400°.
To prepare salad, arrange the sweet potato in a single layer on a baking sheet lightly coated with cooking spray. Lightly coat potato with cooking spray; sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Bake at 400° for 25 minutes or until potato is tender, turning once after 15 minutes. Cool completely.
Sprinkle scallops with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add scallops, and cook 2 minutes on each side or until done. Combine sweet potato, greens, grapes, and red bell pepper in a large bowl. Drizzle vinaigrette over potato mixture; toss gently to coat. Place 1 1/3 cups salad mixture on each of 6 plates; divide scallops evenly among salads. Sprinkle each serving with 2 teaspoons pecans.
