This week at Sunday Supper we are celebrating holiday salads. I often bring salads to my family’s holiday parties because I love salads so much. That’s why I was excited for this week’s theme. Roasted vegetables are a staple at this time of year and of course I seem to be adding goat cheese and pine nuts to everything. So that is what I came up with today, a roasted vegetable & goat cheese salad. The sweetness of roasted winter vegetables, the tang of the creamy goat cheese and a hearty kale for the greens. All of these goodies tossed in a light honey dressing and topped with my favorite … pine nuts!

Last year at this time I made a similar dish. It was a pomegranate quinoa pilaf. It was very colorful and served warm but you could also eat it as a salad the next day. This salad is good with the warm vegetables but tasted just as good the next day chilled from the refrigerator. I love dishes like this that you can get double duty from.

The winter vegetables I chose were beets, butternut squash, peppers, cauliflower and brussels sprouts. I let them roast in the oven until soft and caramelized. There is dish number one. You can serve just the vegetables for dinner one night and make this salad the next day with the leftovers.

When I make this, I like to whisk up the dressing while the vegetables are roasting and dress the kale with half of it. This way the kale will soften a bit. Then when the vegetables come out of the oven I toss them with kale and the rest of the dressing. The dressing is simply oil, balsamic vinegar and just a bit of honey (not the candy, haha). I like white balsamic vinegar like this one for light dressings such as this.

One note, let the vegetables cool down a bit before mixing in the goat cheese.  You don’t want to melt the cheese. This salad is best served warm or room temperature but it’s still very good the next day refrigerated. I hope you like this colorful and festive holiday salad. Please scroll down and check out my friend’s holiday salad recipes. That’s were I’m off to now. Can’t wait to see what they have come up with!

    What a beauty, Denise! I’d have to omit the beets for my husband but I love the whole thing!
