Roasted Beetroot, Brussels Sprouts and Pomegranate Salad

I really wanted to create a lovely holiday salad for you and hopefully this Roasted Beetroot, Brussels Sprouts and Pomegranate Salad will fit your festive table. It’s colourful, warm, nutritious, full of flavours and will team up well with any other dishes. It’s a simple dish using seasonal ingredients beetroot and brussels sprouts with zesty pomegranate and orange.

It’s not a complicated dish to make, just roast beetroot and sprouts in the oven for about 30 minutes and then simply toss with the rest of the ingredients. You can serve it warm right away or cold later, it tastes lovely both ways. I had some leftovers today for lunch with quinoa and fresh green salad on side and I thoroughly enjoyed it. If you’re not a fan of pomegranate, replace the seeds with dried cranberries and it will add more sweetness to the salad. Enjoy:)
