Thanksgiving is typically filled with traditional favorites like turkey and potatoes. This year, try switching it up with a harvest thyme salad.
Rachel Perron, culinary director at Kowalski's Markets, describes the dish as a cold, textural salad to balance out all of the soft, warm dishes typically seen at Thanksgiving.
Harvest Thyme Salad
INGREDIENTS:
- 12 oz. broccoli coleslaw mix
- 2 peeled, cooked beets cut into matchsticks
- 1 cup roasted and salted pepitas
- 1 cup dried currants
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- ½ cup chopped dried mango or apricots
- 8 oz. Salad Girl Organic Dairy-Free Sweet & Sassy Dressing
- 1 ½ tsp. fresh thyme leaves
In a large mixing bowl, combine slaw mix, beets and most of the pepitas and dried fruits, reserving a small bit for garnish; toss. Drizzle salad with most of the dressing; toss to coat. Add additional dressing to taste. Garnish salad with thyme, reserved pepitas and dried fruits.
