Roasted Vegetable Salad
Roasting intensifies the flavors and colors of this composed salad. A warm garlic dressing complements the smokiness of the vegetables, which are arranged over a bed of dark greens, such as kale or chard. Recipe from Martha Stewart’s Living journal, November 2006.

  • 12 ounces assorted fingerling potatoes, halved lengthwise
  • 1/2 pound brussel sprouts
  • 1 medium celery root (about 12 oz.), trimmed, peeled, and cut into 1/4-inch wedges
