Winter Panzanella

Course Appetizers

Ingredients in this Recipe

1 crisp, tart apple (Granny Smith or Braeburn, or your preference), cored and cut into cubes
1 large purple beet, peeled and cut into 1 inch cubes
1 teaspoon grainy mustard
1 teaspoon maple syrup
1/2 cup finely diced, red onion
1/8 teaspoon crushed garlic (I know that seems like a weird amount, but I just don't like my salad dressings very garlicky. You can add more if you like more.)
10 ounces smoked mozarella, cut into 1/2 inch cubes (the salad is also quite tasty, not surprisingly, with crumbled blue cheese, if you prefer that.)
2 1/2 cups butternut squash, peeled and cut in 1 inch cubes (about 1/2 squash)
2 cups very thinly sliced cavolo nero (Tuscan kale)
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
olive oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper
