Recipe: Warmed Ribbon Root Vegetable Salad

Recipe: Warmed Ribbon Root Vegetable Salad
November 1, 2021RecipesRecipes: Fall & WinterRecipes: Holiday

A vibrantly-colored salad will be a stunning side dish on any table.  This root vegetable and kale medley elevate ‘salad’ to an entirely new level. Sautéing allows ingredients’ natural sugars to caramelize and textures to soften slightly. The best dressings accent a dish by balancing more subtle flavors and this vinaigrette does not disappoint, offering a bit of sweet, spicy, savory, and tart. Paired with the tang of goat cheese, chewy dried cranberries, and this dynamic dressing, your taste buds will be caught off guard in the best way!
