This Pumpkin, Pine Nut & Feta Salad is a delicious combination of roasted pumpkin, crunchy pine nuts, tangy feta cheese, and vibrant parsley. It's perfect as a side dish or a light meal, bringing together sweet, savory, and nutty flavors in every bite.
- Roasting the pumpkin.: Ensure you cut the pumpkin into even-sized cubes for uniform roasting. A little sprinkle of salt and pepper before roasting can enhance the flavor.
- Toasting pine nuts.: Toast the pine nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes until they are golden and fragrant. Keep an eye on them, as they can burn easily.
- Assembling the salad.: Combine the roasted pumpkin, toasted pine nuts, finely chopped red onion, and parsley in a large bowl. Mix the olive oil, vinegar, and sugar separately to make a dressing, then pour it over the salad and toss gently.
- Serving suggestion.: For best results, serve the salad immediately after assembling. If you need to prepare it in advance, store the components separately and combine them just before serving.
- Adding extra flavor.: Feel free to add a sprinkle of your favorite spices or herbs such as thyme or oregano for added depth of flavor.
This delightful Pumpkin, Pine Nut & Feta Salad offers a wonderful mix of textures and flavors. It's easy to prepare and makes for a nutritious and appealing dish that's sure to satisfy. Enjoy it fresh, and don't hesitate to tweak the seasoning to your liking!
