I have to admit ... I'm not a huge fan of salads – if we're talking about lettuce, tomato or cucumber salad. However, if it's a warm, hearty salad with vegetables, grains and a delicious dressing, then I'm all in! The dressing for this salad contains maple syrup, which gives it a slightly sweet taste, while the mustard and vinegar give it a wonderful sharpness. Combined with sweet, roasted vegetables, this salad is perfect as we move from winter to spring.
