Aren’t short weeks the best weeks? I woke up this morning with a little extra pep in my step because tomorrow is THANKSGIVING!! I am SO excited to officially welcome the holiday season!
Expect 100% holiday cheer (OK, and realness) for all to hear from now through the end of the year… see what I did there! 😉
In getting with the holiday spirit, I’m excited to share this simple salad recipe that tastes nothing like simple at all – my Sweet and Savory Delicata Squash Salad for this month’s Recipe Redux!
Here’s this month’s theme…
Naturally Colored Holiday Treats and Trimmings: Holiday feast season is upon us. But there’s lots of room on the table for brightly-colored, nutritious foods. Show us your sweet or savory, naturally-colored/naturally-dyed holiday fare.
I’m all about eating as many colors as possible every day of the year, but especially once the weather chills (helloooo flu season!). I’m always at a loss for veggies when I go anywhere aside from my family’s home for the holidays… (What’s up with that? Oh yeah, the fact that more than 90% of Americans don’t eat enough fruits and veggies – womp, womp)
So I’m on a mission to change that with this salad…
But I’m not preaching!!
It’s the holiday season and I want you to ENJOY every single bite you eat. However, I also want you to FEEL like a million bucks so you can enjoy all of the festivities to come. You can have your cake and eat it too when it comes to deliciously nutritious food — year round!
So if you’re looking for something simple to round out a very white table this year, I have almost every color right here, in one dish. I told you I’m all about keeping things SIMPLE!
This Sweet and Savory Delicata Squash Salad is…
- Easy to make
- Full of fall flavor
- Like eating the rainbow
- A colorful addition to your Thanksgiving (or any) table
- Warm and comforting (for a salad!)
