Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Peel and dice the sweet potato into 1/2-inch cubes. Place the cubes on a baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper, then toss to coat.
Roast the sweet potatoes in the oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are tender and lightly caramelized.
While the sweet potatoes are roasting, cook the wild rice according to the package instructions. Typically, use 2 cups of water for 3/4 cup of wild rice and cook for about 25 minutes until tender. Drain any excess liquid if necessary.
Prepare the apple by coring and slicing it into thin slices. Set aside.
To make the dressing, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, remaining olive oil (1 tablespoon), 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of water in a small bowl until smooth and well combined.
In a large bowl, combine the baby kale with the warm wild rice. Toss the mixture gently to slightly wilt the kale.
Add the roasted sweet potatoes, sliced apple, crumbled goat cheese, and pecans to the bowl.
Drizzle the prepared dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Divide the harvest bowl mixture between two serving bowls. Serve immediately and enjoy!
