Ingredients:

  • 1 bunch of kale (chopped)
  • 4 cups spinach
  • 1/2 red onion
  • 2 butter nut squash (slice before baking to make it easier)
  • 1/2 cup cranberries
  • 1 1/2cups goat cheese (I sprinkle it on after I have served the salads into their individual bowls)

Optional: Add walnuts, almonds, cashews or seeds for extra protein and fat. (I cannot tolerate nuts and seeds so you don’t see them in this salad)

Instructions:

1. Throw all ingredients into a large salad bowl except for the goat cheese and squash. Pre-cut squash. Remove the peeling as well.

1/3 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup lemon juice
