Harvest Salad: A Last-Ditch Effort For Your Fat Ass

Now that we know the world will probs end in about 2.5 years, we feel like we still need to try to look nice for a lil while. Even though the holidays are coming, we like to give the illusion of balance by making a fucking salad. I mean, it cant be pizza and sadness until January, right? Right.

We adapted this recipe from lil bitchJamie Oliver, who cries over anything that isnt healthy.

Ingredients:

• 1 small butternut squash, skinned, seeded, and cut into 1-inch chunks feel free to buy the pre-sliced shit too
• 4 small beets, whatever colors your heart desires, scrubbed and cut into quarters
• 1 small red onion, cut into sixths
• 2 bulbs of fennel, each cut into like, 6-8 wedges
• Olive oil
• 2 tsps ground coriander
• Salt and pepper
• bunch of fresh mint
• bunch of fresh parsley
• 1 pomegranate
• cup crumbled feta or goat cheese
• 2 tbsps red wine vinegar
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard

Preheat the oven to 350F and place the butternut squash, beets, red onion, and fennel on a sheet pan thats been sprayed with non-stick spray. You cant be too fucking careful these days. Sprinkle over the olive oil (not like, a ton, but enough to make everything nommy), coriander, salt, and pepper to taste. Toss everything wiff yo hands!

Roast for 40-60 minutes, shaking and stirring veggies about halfway through. Once the veggies are soft and goldenstarting to get caramelytake them out and let them cool for a bit.

Meanwhile, make your dressing by combining 2 tbsps of red wine vinegar, 6 tbsps of extra virgin olive oil, and 1 tsp of Dijon mustard. Mix all that shit real good, then sprinkle over the veggies while theyre still warm. Sprinkle the mint and parsley leaves over the top and toss.

Grab your pomegranate, cut it in half, then hit (yes literally) the back of each half with a wooden spoon to get the seeds out. Then add them to the veggies. Crumble over the feta, toss all that shit together in a big bowl, and eat your healthy feelings!
