This salad is one of the things I love about fall. It is just very simple, yet worthy of a special occasion. The classic lemon and olive oil dressing, and the sweetness of freshly roasted pumpkin make an unforgettable combo. I am sure you are excited to try it!

Let’s talk a little bit about PUMPKIN! 

MY LATEST VIDEOS

WHAT KIND OF PUMPKIN TO USE

Although all ingredients are important, the star ingredient in this Roasted Pumpkin Salad recipe is, of course, pumpkin. So, the end result will depend heavily on how good your pumpkin is. When shopping for pumpkins, look for the ones usually labeled “sugar pumpkins” or “sweet pumpkins.” Cinderella and Fairytale Pumpkins are best for roasting because they hold their shape nicely. They are usually quite large in size, but you may be able to find these pumpkins cut and sold by pieces at your local produce store. If not, you can bake the leftovers and make homemade pumpkin puree. You can also try making this salad with Baby Pam, Ghost Rider, Autumn Gold, Lumina, or New England Pie pumpkins. And while we are on the subject, please try my Pumpkin Spice Latte Recipe, you’ll be very impressed!
