Butternut Fall Salad
It doesn't get much better than this! I really enjoy this sweet and savor salad. One note it is low in protein, so serve with additional protein. Leftover turkey would be a great option! You could also add more carbs for a heftier meal. Quinoa pairs well. Or keep it as is and serve as a side salad.
