Ingredients

  • 2 Taylor Farms Sweet Kale Chopped Salad Kits
  • 3 cups butternut squash cut into 1-inch cubes, or leftover squash/sweet potato
  • 1 tablespoon-ish extra-virgin olive oil

  2. Place squash on a sheet pan and drizzle with olive oil, salt, pepper and thyme; toss to coat.
  3. Arrange the squash in a single layer and roast until tender, 25–30 minutes, tossing halfway through.
  4. Meanwhile, toss greens with the included creamy poppyseed dressing. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Add roasted squash, shredded turkey, shaved Manchego, cranberries, and almonds.
  6. Season once more with salt, pepper, and additional fresh thyme if you like. Enjoy!
