<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">This salad is quite colorful and Let me tell you, we need some color right now. We are currently experiencing Winter, hence the name ð. We all know how long winter can feel at times. It&#8217;s cold and snowy but just like any season, there is still some beauty. My favorite part of winter is when it snows and sticks to the trees, I love those mornings you wake up in a winter wonderland. Those are probably my favorite moments of winter. Yes, snow can be pretty at times but I don&#8217;t enjoy shoveling or driving in it! Thankfully we know spring is on its way guys! </p>

This past fall we did a total overhaul of our growing area. I can&#8217;t wait to plant in it! Hopefully, spring doesn&#8217;t come too quickly. Winter is a great time to slow down and it gives us time to enjoy the inside. I still have plenty of projects to complete hahaha. Well, I better get going!! </p>

<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">&#8211;<strong>Kale</strong>&#8211; Wash and destem your kale-You&#8217;ll need about 3 leaves</p>



<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">&#8211;<strong>Honey</strong>-Start with 1 tsp add more if it needs more sweetness-this will be used in making the vinegarette-</p>



<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">&#8211;<strong>2 tsp Mustard</strong>&#8211; You can use a dijon-I used an old world mustard-used to make the vinegarette</p>

<div style="height:51px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px"><strong>Preheat your oven to 350 degrees</strong></p>



<div style="height:60px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px"> &#8211;<strong>First, you&#8217;ll want to gather all your ingredients</strong>. Start by prepping your Butternut squash. Cut your butternut squash in half. For this recipe, we are going to be using the top half, the section without the seeds. Peel the skin off and dice your butternut squash. </p>



<div style="height:57px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px"> Wash your brussels sprouts and cut off the stem part and peel off the first layer of leaves and cut them in half. You&#8217;ll want to add the butternut squash and brussels sprouts to a sheet pan, drizzle with olive oil, toss and arrange them evenly on the sheet pan. Season with salt and pepper. You&#8217;ll be cooking your veggies for a total of 35 mins then adding the kale and putting the veggies back in the oven for an additional 10 mins. Cooking it for a total of 45 mins.</p>



<div style="height:55px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">&#8211;<strong>While they cook you&#8217;ll want to make your quinoa</strong>. Grab a pot (the one you usually use to make rice) you&#8217;ll want to measure 1 cup of quinoa. Rinse it through a fine mesh strainer and add the quinoa to the pot. Then simply add 1 1/2 cups of water, and 1/4 tsp salt, and stir. </p>

<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">You&#8217;ll want to cook your quinoa on med-to-high heat just until it starts to boil. Then reduce the heat to low and cover it with a lid. Let your quinoa cook for about 15-20 mins. Sometimes I leave it longer and it&#8217;s totally fine. The quinoa should be light and fluffy with no water.</p>



<div style="height:52px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">&#8211;<strong>Next prep your pomegranate seeds.</strong> I usually cut off a chunk and pop the seeds out. You&#8217;ll also need to get your kale ready to cook. Remember you need to add it to the sheet pan at 35 mins. Kale takes about 10 mins to cook. You&#8217;ll need to destem your kale. That means removing the stem. Then you&#8217;ll want to tear the kale into medium size pieces and place them in a bowl. Drizzle the kale with olive oil, add them to the sheet pan, and season with salt and pepper. Note: Push the other veggies to one side that way you have room for the kale.</p>



<div style="height:38px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>

<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">&#8211;<strong>Now let&#8217;s make the Vinegarette</strong>. Grab a bowl and add 2 tsp of mustard-dijon works great, 1 clove of minced garlic, 1 tsp of sherry vinegar, 1 tsp of honey-more if you desire more sweetness, then season with salt and pepper. Start whisking the ingredients and drizzle in 1/4 cup of olive oil. You&#8217;ll want to continue to whisk these ingredients until you get the right consistency.</p>



<div style="height:53px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">&#8211;<strong>Add the cooked quinoa to a large bowl</strong>. To cool it down a bit by spreading it out along the bottom of the bowl. Next, you&#8217;ll be <strong>adding your roasted vegetables, pomegranate seeds, and dollops of goat cheese,</strong> <strong>lastly drizzle in the vinaigrette and toss. Enjoy!! </strong></p>
