Root Veggie Salad With Horseradish Dressing Food

ROASTED VEGETABLE SALAD

Steps:

• Roast veggies: Heat oven to 400°F. Place cauliflower, butternut squash and brussels sprouts on a large baking sheet, spray with a little avocado oil spray or drizzle with oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Roast for 30-40 minutes or until veggies are until well caramelized and softened with a few golden brown spots. Stir once mid-way through the cooking process and watch closely so the veggies don't burn.
• Prep dressing: While veggies are cooking, make the dressing: Combine all ingredients except the olive oil and whisk to combine. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking, set aside. Taste and add more olive oil, if needed.
• Prep salad: Remove vegetables from oven and allow to cool to room temperature, then combine in a large bowl with the beans, kale and pomegranate seeds. Toss in the dressing to evenly coat everything. You may find that you don't need to use all of the dressing.
• Serve: Portion into bowls, top with mulberries and serve.
• Store: Salad will keep marinated for up to 2 days in the fridge.

SHAVED KALE AND ROOT VEGETABLE SALAD

Steps:

• For the red wine vinaigrette: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, shallots, garlic, salt and pepper and whisk together well. Slowly whisk the extra-virgin olive oil into the middle of the vinegar mixture to create an emulsion, incorporating all the oil. Stir in the chives. Cover and refrigerate.
• For the salad: In a medium saucepan, toast the quinoa in the olive oil over medium-high heat about 1 minute to evaporate the water. Add the vegetable stock and salt and bring to a boil. Immediately reduce to a simmer and cook, covered, until the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove from the burner and allow to sit covered for 5 minutes. Fluff the quinoa and let cool uncovered; reserve to the side.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the kale, carrots, radishes, red onion and cooked red quinoa. Add the red wine vinaigrette and toss well to thoroughly combine. Place the salad on a large serving platter and serve immediately.

SPRING VEGETABLE SALAD WITH HORSERADISH AND LEMON VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• For the dressing, combine the white wine vinegar, horseradish and lemon extract in a mixing bowl and stir to combine. Whisk in the olive oil and season to taste with salt.
• Bring a large pot of water to the boil. Set up a bowl of ice water next to the stove and set a colander inside the ice water (so no ice is inside the colander). Stir a little salt into the water.
• Add the vegetables in separate groups to the boiling water and cook each batch until just tender, about a minute; each vegetable should still have a little snap. Leave all the vegetables to cool and mix in the ice water after cooking.
• Drain the vegetables well and pat dry. Add the cooked vegetables, radishes and cucumber to the bowl with the dressing and toss well to combine. Season to taste with salt. Transfer to a platter and garnish with the dill and mint or pea tendrils.
