Kale and Squash Salad with Maple Vinaigrette

Salad has never been a part of my Thanksgiving tradition, until this year. There are many reasons to include a fresh, leafy greens salad on the holiday table, and I’ve shared them here. And, of course, this salad works well throughout autumn and winter.

BLT Salad with Avocado Dill Dressing

This is really four recipes in one that will add so much flavor and creativity to an endless array of meals. You’re getting 1) the salad recipe; 2) a delicious and easy preparation for making homemade croutons (you’ll never go back to store-bought); 3) an easier (and healthier) way to make crispy bacon in the oven and; 4) a versatile avocado dill dressing that goes with countless salads, while also being a tasty condiment for sandwiches and toasts.
