Make Seasonal Acorn Squash Salad

Im always searching for a fall salad to take to gatherings, parties or simply to eat with a seared piece of fish on a random weeknight. This one is currently in heavy rotation. Its filling and slightly warm and spiced with flavors of the season.

This week has been particularly hectic, with the release of my new book, and lots of projects ahead, so Ive been looking for ways to make a big batch of something and have it in the fridge, to eat a little at a time.  When I first made this over the weekend, I was sort of bummed that it got soggy over the course of a few hours in the fridge. The next day I remade it and smartened up!

Instead of tossing everything together and storing it in the fridge, I separated all of the components. Just before eating time, I mixed everything together and it was perfectly fresh and delicious. If you, too, are starting to feel the frantic nature of the upcoming season, and want something to just be ready in this fridge, then this is it!
