Roasted Squash Salad with Sumac Yogurt Dressing

This vibrant salad is perfect to serve during the cold winter months. Pomegranate is in season and the roasted squash gives it a cozy twist. The yogurt dressing is served as the base of the salad rather than being pre-tossed to show off the bright ingredients. It is a showstopper salad for entertaining, but it's also simple enough to pull together for a weeknight dinner. Serve along with some roasted chicken or salmon for a complete meal.

We LOVE this recipe. Totally delicious even without the pomegranate when they are not in season.
