Salad Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Roasted Squash

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the squash into cubes, toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread on a baking sheet. Roast for about 20-25 minutes or until tender and golden.

  2. 2

    Toast the Pepitas

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the pepitas until they are golden and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, pumpkin puree, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, roasted squash, raisins, sliced radishes, and red onion. Add the herbed quark cheese and toasted pepitas on top.

  5. 5

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the maple pumpkin vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately.
