Easy Pumpkin Salad with Avocado

Serves 4-6 Prep Time 10 minutes   Cook Time 30 minutes   Rated:

The best recipes for salads that I come up with are the random, 'got nothing much in the house' salads, that are also related to the fact I don't want to go to the shops again; this is such a salad. I usually have a piece of pumpkin hanging around in the fridge, avo's are a plenty under normal circumstances and nuts for garnish are always stocked in the house somewhere. SO make a killer dressing, get the oven roasting whatever veggies you have hiding at the back of the veggie drawer and you are ready to eat. This will work well with eggplant, fennel, zucchini or other root vegetables in place of or as well as the pumpkin.

Simple.
