Roasted Squash, Apple, and Cipollini Onion Salad
Holiday_Express@yahoogroups.com This colorful salad is a cinch to make -- the oven does most of the work -- and is loaded with nutritious vegetables and fruit. I like to drizzle this as it comes out of the oven with just a couple tsp on honey while it's very hot. It just sets the sweet flavors of the roasted veggies. My grandsons love it. sue Martha Stewart Living, October 2010

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Toss apples with onions, 3/4 teaspoon oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt; spread onto a rimmed baking sheet. Toss squash with 3/4 teaspoon oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; spread onto a separate rimmed baking sheet. Roast apple-onion mixture, tossing halfway through, until apples are tender and lightly browned and onions are just starting to crisp, 25 to 30 minutes. Meanwhile, roast squash, tossing halfway through, until tender and browned, 40 to 45 minutes. Now is the time to drizzle the little bit of honey right from the oven if using. Toss watercress with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil and the vinegar; season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Transfer salad to a serving platter, and top with apple-onion mixture, squash, and walnuts.
