Salad:Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl whisk together maple syrup, olive oil and salt. Coat sliced sweet potato (⅛ inch) and transfer slices to prepared baking tray. Bake for 15- 20 minutes, flipping slices after 15 minutes.

Salad Assembly: On a large serving platter spoon rice on one side and place lettuce on the other. Arrange remaining ingredients in groups on top. Garnish with cilantro leaves. Serve with lime wedges and dressing.
