Recipe for Fall Harvest Salad with Roasted Cabbage and Radishes
Serious Mealtimes / Vicky Wasik
If you’re like me the salad at Thanksgiving is the dish you treat most as an afterthought. We plan the turkey plan the stuffing plan everything… and then you know we’re just “making” a salad. Given how simple and delicious a salad can be that makes sense. However given how epic the rest of the meal is it’s nice to put a little extra effort into it.
But therein lies the challenge. Any extra effort when it comes to salads usually means a lot of last-minute prep right before serving adding stress to an already stressful day of cooking. The fact is dressing tender greens ahead of time just leads to wilted lettuce. So my goal with this salad was to hit a few key points: I wanted it to feel festive and appropriate for the occasion; I wanted it to feel seasonal celebrating fall with an abundance of hearty ingredients; I wanted it to be designed so that you can prep almost everything ahead of time—even a few days ahead—without sacrificing quality; and I wanted it to hold up well once fully dressed so that second and third helpings are just as delicious as the first.
