About Kale salad with squash

Kale Salad with Squash is a vibrant, nutrient-packed dish rooted in modern Western cuisine, embracing seasonal ingredients and wholesome eating. This salad features tender kale leaves massaged with olive oil and lemon juice, roasted cubes of butternut or acorn squash, toasted seeds like pepitas, and a sprinkle of dried cranberries for a touch of sweetness. Often topped with a light vinaigrette or a tahini drizzle, it balances earthy, nutty, and tangy flavors. Kale is rich in fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins A, C, and K, supporting heart health and boosting immunity. Roasted squash provides beta-carotene, which benefits skin and eye health. Healthy fats from olive oil and seeds enhance nutrient absorption, while cranberries add natural sweetness without overloading sugar. This salad is low in calories and packed with plant-based nutrients, though mindful portions are advised for toppings high in calories.
