ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SALAD WITH BURRATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Combine 1 tablespoon oil, cumin, paprika, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/8 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Add squash; toss to coat. Spread on a large rimmed baking sheet and roast, stirring once, until tender, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk shallot, molasses, vinegar, thyme and the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/8 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
• When the squash has finished roasting, toss arugula with 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette. Transfer to a serving platter. Scatter the squash over the arugula and top with burrata slices. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons dressing and sprinkle with walnuts and pomegranate seeds (if using).

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SALAD WITH WARM CIDER VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the butternut squash on a sheet pan. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, the maple syrup, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and toss. Roast the squash for 15 to 20 minutes, turning once, until tender. Add the cranberries to the pan for the last 5 minutes.
• While the squash is roasting, combine the apple cider, vinegar, and shallots in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes, until the cider is reduced to about 1/4 cup. Off the heat, whisk in the mustard, 1/2 cup olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper.
• Place the arugula in a large salad bowl and add the roasted squash mixture, the walnuts, and the grated Parmesan. Spoon just enough vinaigrette over the salad to moisten and toss well. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
