How to make that TastyBurp
-
Roast Butternut Squash: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the diced butternut squash with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread it out on a baking sheet and roast for about 20-25 minutes or until the squash is tender and slightly caramelized. Allow it to cool.
-
Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Set aside.
-
Prepare the Salad: In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, sliced red cabbage, sliced Brussels sprouts, chopped apples, dried cranberries, and toasted nuts. Toss everything together gently.
-
Add the Roasted Butternut Squash: Once the roasted butternut squash has cooled slightly, add it to the salad.
-
Drizzle with Dressing: Pour the dressing over the salad and toss everything together to ensure the salad is evenly coated with the dressing.
-
Optional: Add Cheese: If you'd like to include cheese, sprinkle crumbled goat cheese or feta cheese on top of the salad.
-
Serve: Divide the fall harvest salad among serving plates or bowls. Garnish with additional toasted nuts and a drizzle of extra dressing if desired.
- Enjoy that TastyBurp!
