Pumpkin salad is a vibrant and nutritious dish that celebrates the natural sweetness of pumpkin paired with complementary ingredients. Often found in Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and fall-inspired cuisines, this salad features roasted pumpkin cubes tossed with leafy greens like arugula or spinach, nuts such as walnuts or pine nuts, and a tangy vinaigrette made with olive oil, lemon juice, or balsamic vinegar. Some variations incorporate goat cheese, quinoa, or pomegranate seeds for added texture and flavor. Rich in vitamins A and C, pumpkin supports healthy immune function and skin health. Its fiber content promotes digestion, while the olive oil provides heart-healthy fats. Pumpkin salad is generally nutrient-dense and low in calories, but toppings like cheese or sugary dressings can increase fat and sugar levels. Overall, it’s a wholesome option for balanced eating that showcases the versatility of seasonal produce.
