This is a great salad for colder nights. You can even reheat any leftovers, all on the same tray in the oven until hot.


Ingredients

SALAD

  • 1 butternut pumpkin, diced 2-3cm until you have 1½ cups worth
  • ½ beetroot, diced 1-2cm
  • ½ red onion, diced 1-2cm

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 220ºC. Line an oven tray with baking paper.
