FALL HARVEST SALAD with HONEY APPLE CIDER VINAIGRETTE!🤗 (sponsored)
.
I love making my own dressings when it comes to salads. (They just taste 1000x better in my opinion.) And they’re so easy to make too! Just mix some oil, your favorite vinegar & some type of sweetener & you’re good to good!😉 For this one I used a combo of apple cider vinegar & @taylorpasshoneyusa manuka honey & it was perfect!👌🏻 Not only was it super tasty with my ingredients but the manuka honey added a ton of health benefits too! Supports a healthy immune system✔️ Good for gut health✔️ Reduces inflammation✔️ And most importantly, adds the perfect touch of sweetness to any fall salad!🤗
@taylorpasshoneyusa can now be found at @sprouts, so make sure to pick some up on your next trip!
.
Hope you’re all having the best Thursday!😊💕
.
Fall Harvest Salad🍎
1 head of kale, leaves cut off the stem & chopped
1 honeynut squash, diced
1 honeycrisp apple, sliced
Pomegranate seeds
Goat cheese
Pepitas
Honey Apple Cider Vinaigrette: 4 Tbsp apple cider vinegar + 3 Tbsp olive oil + 2 Tbsp manuka honey (or regular honey) + cracked black pepper
.
1. Toss your honeynut squash in avocado oil & spread it out on a pan lined with parchment paper. Season with salt & pepper & bake at 400 degrees for 30-35 minutes. Let it cool.
2. Massage your kale leaves in a large bowl with 1 tsp olive oil until softened. Then add your apples, pomegranate seeds & cooled squash & toss with your desired amount of dressing.
3. Top with goat cheese & pepitas & serve!

EASY BAKED APPLES with CINNAMON HONEY SAUCE!🤤 It’s doesn’t get any more fall than this! (sponsored)

OVEN BAKED BBQ CHICKEN & PEACH SKEWERS!😍
.
Just because summer’s coming to an end doesn’t mean we have to say no to bbq right?! (I’m a bbq all year round kind of girl.😉) And these tasty skewers are a fun way to do just that! Just toss your chicken in some bbq seasoning (I used @kitchen_crafted Kansas City Smoker seasoning), make up your skewers & bake!
Pro-tip: ALWAYS broil them for a few minutes at the end to get that crispy outside we all know & love!🤤
.
Hope you’re all having a great Thursday loves!😊💕

Who’s ready for the weekend?!🕺🏼
