Time 25m

Yield 1 salad, 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

500 g fresh pumpkin or 500 g butternut squash
500 g kumara (sweet potato)
50 g pine nuts
100 g feta
3 tablespoons light olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon coarse grain mustard

Steps:

  • Skin pumpkin and kumara. Dice into large cubes and either 1) boil until just cooked, or 2) if you have enough time, roast vegetables until just cooked instead.
  • Toast pine nuts under a broiler (grill) until it smells like popcorn when they'll be just browning. Give them a shuffle every few minutes to keep them turned while they're toasting.
  • Dice feta into smaller cubes.
  • Mix together the oil, balsamic and wholegrain mustard. Toss the pumpkin, kumara, feta and pine nuts with the dressing and serve.

I added some chopped walnuts to this salad and it gave it a nice crunchy texture.

I substituted goat cheese for the feta cheese and it was delicious!

The pumpkin in this salad was undercooked. I would recommend roasting it for a longer period of time.

This salad was very time-consuming to make. I wouldn't recommend it for a weeknight meal.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding some more herbs or spices to the dressing.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less maple syrup in the dressing.

This salad was easy to make and very delicious. I used canned pumpkin and it worked out just fine. I also added some dried cranberries for a little extra sweetness. Yum!

This salad was a delightful surprise! The combination of sweet pumpkin, crunchy pine nuts, and salty feta cheese was perfect. I loved the addition of the arugula, which added a peppery bite. The dressing was also very tasty and complemented the salad
