Take-out Tuesday, Winter Roasted Grape Salad

Salads are the perfect way to eat lighter after the holidays, but sometimes they just aren’t appealing when the weather is cold and dreary.  I saw a roasted grape salad over at Nibbles by Nic and decided to give it a try

I love to add fruit to salads, see All Seasons Salad here, and warm grapes mixed with crispy lettuce, tasty cheese, and nuts, sounded like a perfect dinner to me

Roast the grapes just like you would any vegetables, on a foil lined baking sheet, drizzled with oil and seasoned with salt and pepper

Roast for about 15 minutes at 400 and that’s it!

Toss them with some crispy romaine, a diced flavorful cheese, and some toasted nuts

I used Asiago cheese and pine nuts

Dress with your favorite vinaigrette, such as this Maple and Mustard Salad Dressing here, and season again to taste
