ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SALAD WITH WARM CIDER VINAIGRETTE
Salads can be a hard sell in winter. Iceburg lettuce, when there's ice on the driveway, just doesn't work. Winter salads work because they call for ingredients with assertive flavours and plenty of heft. Save the frisee and chilly cucumber slices for summer. Enjoy this salad...
