Seriously. I need to share this meal with the world. Yeah, it’s a salad but a damn good salad! It probably is the best salad I have ever created. I’d like to call it: CWS aka Casi’s Winter Salad. HAHA not very unique but it is pretty wintery and I made it, so there it is.
I wish I had better pictures, someone please buy me a camera 🙂
Like…trust me. It was so good, I am SO making it again tomorrow.
- Spring Mix
- Cherry Tomatoes
- Feta Cheese
- Chopped Walnuts
- Roasted Butternut Squash & Orange Cauliflower
When roasting the veggies, set the oven to 425ºF then pop them in after drizzling with EVOO, Sea Salt & Freshly ground Pepper. Cook for about 15 minutes (depending on how crispy you like ’em).
And as for the simple dressing I mixed:
- EVOO
- Red Wine Vinegar
- Sea Salt & Cracked Pepper
- Whole Grain Mustard
Horrible lighting, but there it is.
I insist you try this. I am not sure if I found this especially delicious because I was especially hungry after a 5 mile run, but you should give CWS a shot. Whether you run before or not.
The feta + butternut squash + mustard = wonderful balance of flavors. Roasted vegetables are delicious any way, but I truly love them in this salad.
And obviously I needed dessert:
Dark Chocolate completes me. Nuff said. My mom bought this for me upon arriving home. It’s love.
(My brother said this picture looks like a condom HA…)
