Winter Green Salad image

People tend to forget to eat salads and other raw foods in the cold weather. This salad is a good way to get your greens by combining somewhat heartier salad textures. I find that this salad is filling enough to be a main course, with a bit of bread or some rice cakes on the side. It will also work as an appetizer in a smaller serving.

This is the best winter salad I've ever tasted! It's perfectly balanced, with the sweetness of the roasted squash and the tanginess of the dressing complimenting each other perfectly. I'll definitely be making this salad again and again!
