This easy fall salad is filled with chopped greens, apples, dried cranberries, pumpkin seeds and roasted butternut squash. Then topped with a maple balsamic dressing that brings out the delicious fall flavors!
¼cupmayo or greek yogurt(optional for a creamier dressing)
S&P to taste
Optional mix-ins: shredded chicken, turkey, wild rice, extra veggies, sliced red onion
Instructions
Spray a little olive oil onto a small skillet. Add the diced butternut squash and cook over medium heat. Cook a couple of minutes and then flip. Cook until the edges are slightly golden and roasted.
Chop the greens extra fine and place in a large bowl. Line the apples, cranberries and pumpkin seeds on top. Sprinkle the cheese and roasted butternut squash over top. Add chicken, rice or any extra mix-in's as desired.
If making the homemade dressing, whisk together the ingredients. Add the mayo or greek yogurt if you'd like a thicker and creamier dressing.
Drizzle the dressing over top just before serving and then toss with salad tongs. Serve immediately.
