Recipe - Vegie Salad with Pomegranate

I just put this on another blog to win some yummy scrummy salad dressing and oil...mmm BUT I thought to myself I should put it on my own lil blog so here it is with the yummy photo to go with it.. well not the best photo. It really does not do this salad justice...


Joe's Roast Vegie Salad with Pomegranate/Mango
An ever evolving salad depending on the season and our tastes

We use a mix of roast vegies. Cut into small (not tiny) pieces

Our favourites

Potato
Sweet Potato
Pumpkin
Parsnip
Beetroot
Carrot (I hate this but the family seem to love it so I pick it our. )
Cherry Tomatoes (take out when they are suitably 'roasted')
We also pop some garlic heads in with the vegies... mmm

Rocket and Salad Leaves. Must include the Rocket for that little extra zing.

Proscuitto, Pancetta or Bacon - crispy .. I don't always use this.

Parmesan Cheese .. thinly shaved

Leftover Ciabatta made into croutons.

In a large bowl toss the salad leaves with the roast vegies, garlic, bacon cheese and croutons.

Just before serving sprinkle the delicious Pomegranate seeds over the top or Mango finely diced.

Variations include adding Chicken (hot or cold)sometimes breast sometimes leftover schnitzels
We might add some thinly sliced beef or lamb...
