This vibrant dandelion salad with roasted squash is a sophisticated vegetarian dish that celebrates seasonal textures and bold flavours. The slightly bitter, peppery notes of the dandelion greens are perfectly balanced by the sweet, caramelised wedges of roasted squash and the tart crunch of fresh pomegranate seeds. It is a visually stunning dish that brings a refined touch to any autumn or winter table, offering a complex flavour profile that feels both wholesome and comforting.
Ideal for an elegant lunch or as a colourful side dish for a dinner party, this recipe is naturally packed with antioxidants and healthy fats. If you cannot find delicata squash, acorn squash or even thin wedges of roasted butternut squash make excellent substitutes. Serve while the vegetables are still warm to enjoy the delightful contrast between the heated squash and the crisp, fresh greens.
