I used a store-bought dressing and it worked just fine.

I substituted feta cheese for the goat cheese and it was still delicious.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover roasted vegetables. I had some roasted sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and butternut squash, and they all worked perfectly in this salad. The dressing is also really tasty and easy to make.
