The Perfect Fall Salad: Redbor Kale with Roasted Squash and Orange

brooklynsupper | November 14th, 2012 at 4:45 pm

Calling this the perfect fall salad is a big claim. But really, it is. Earthy Redbor kale (a purple or pinkish variety) is dressed in a lightly sweet, tangy vinaigrette with the fragrance of fresh orange. Roasted butternut squash lends heartiness and fall color to the salad, and supremed oranges make it delightful. Fall color abounds, with a wonderful selection of seasonal vegetables and fruit. I daresay this is just the salad to grace your Thanksgiving table, or perhaps just a healthy something for the chef as he or she cooks. Either way, you need this kale salad.
