Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cut into 1-inch cubes (about 4 cups)
- 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 teaspoons roughly chopped fresh rosemary
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 4 tangerines
- 6 cups fresh spinach, loosely packed
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Toss the squash with 2 tablespoons olive oil on a baking sheet and spread in an even layer. Season with 2 teaspoons rosemary, and salt and pepper. Roast, stirring once halfway through, until the squash is just tender and golden, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool until just warm, about 15 minutes.
While the squash is roasting, peel 3 tangerines and slice them crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick rounds, removing any seeds. Juice the remaining tangerine and whisk the juice together with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and remaining 1 teaspoon rosemary. Season the dressing with salt and pepper.
Combine the warm squash, the spinach, tangerine slices and cranberries with the dressing and toss gently to coat. Divide among salad plates.

My family is addicted to this recipe!! Such a delightful burst of flavor for the palate. I think fresh rosemary is essential to the integrity of this recipe. We love substituting pomegranate arils and a few fresh blueberries for the dried cranberries.

With the tangerine pieces this salad is sweet on sweet on sweet. However, without them I loved it.
