Butternut Squash Salad with Apples, Goat Cheese & Grains

This roasted butternut squash salad recipe features caramelized squash, crunchy apples, creamy goat cheese and hearty grains for a healthy, flavor-packed side dish or vegetarian main course. It's the perfect fall or winter salad, and it makes for a stunning (make-ahead!) side dish on a holiday table.

This is one of my very favorite salads. It's sweet and savory, it's packed with flavor and texture, and it can be made ahead for a healthy dinner or side dish.

Ingredients:
Roasted squash, maple pecans and dressing
  • 2- pound butternut squash, peeled and cut into ½-inch dice (4 cups diced)
  • 6 garlic cloves, unpeeled
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh sage, divided
  • 1 ½ teaspoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon plus ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil, divided
  • Salt & freshly ground black pepper
  • ¾ cup pecans
  • 1 ½ tablespoons maple syrup, divided
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

To assemble
  • 3-4 cups cooked brown rice (from 1 cup uncooked), or other whole grains, such as quinoa, farro or barley
  • 1 crisp apple, such as Fuji, Granny Smith or Pink Lady, cored and cut into ½-inch dice
  • 2-4- ounces goat cheese, crumbled
  • Fried sage leaves (recipe link in header), optional
