Winter Harvest Salad with Spiced Walnuts
Total Time: Approx. 1hr
Ingredients:
For the Salad:
- 2 cups butternut squash chopped
- 4 medium/small sized rainbow carrots chopped
- 1 red onion sliced
- Avocado oil
- Baby Kale and Spinach Mix
- Vegan Feta (I like the one from VioLife)
- Spiced Walnuts (Check out my easy spiced walnut recipe)
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp Nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp Thyme
- 1/4 tsp fresh Rosemary
- A dash of Himalayan Salt and Pepper
Dressing:
- 1/4 cup Tahini
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- A dash of Himalayan Salt
- A dash of Black Pepper
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- 2 tbsp Juice of a Lemon
- Water (to dilute to desired consistency)
Method:
Pre-heat oven to 400F.
Chop and prepare your butternut squash, carrots and your onion.
Toss the butternut squash, carrots and onion in a bowl with avocado oil, and spices. Lay out on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 40min or until a fork can be pierced through the veggies.
As the veggies are baking, make your salad dressing. Add all the ingredients to a bowl and whisk until you've gained your desired consistency.
When the veggies are done baking let cool for 10-15min. Next, assemble your salad. Add Baby Kale and Spinach to a bowl, add your veggies, spiced walnuts, vegan feta and your garlic tahini dressing.
Enjoy!
