Fall Harvest Salad with Roast Delicata Squash

Frances Kellar
This is a wonderful seasonal salad that uses delicata squash though you can sub for other winter squash varieties like butternut or acorn squash. A slightly sweet dressing and tangy feta give a delicious balance of flavor for a great weeknight dinner salad.
