Broccoli and Fruit Salad
It’s that time of year where everyone is eating healthy to keep up with their resolutions. I wasn’t planning to jump on the bandwagon, but when I saw this recipe the other day, I had to make it. It was so colorful and chock full of some of my favorite fruits.
Even when I was mixing it together, I figured I wouldn’t even share it with you guys. I mean, this is a baking blog. I’m not really known for posting healthy recipes on here. But once I put it into the the bowl, it was so beautiful I just had to take a picture of it. And after that first bite, I knew I had to share it with you guys. It’s delicious.
I have a feeling I’ll be eating this salad year-round. I went heavy on the ingredients I love and lighter on the ones I’m not crazy about.

Broccoli and Fruit Salad
Yield: Serves 2-4
Ingredients:
2 small bunches broccoli
3 tangerines
1 pomegranate, seeded
1/4 cup shaved or thinly sliced fennel
1 avocado, sliced
1/4 cup slivered almonds
extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper
Directions:
Blanch broccoli by adding it to boiled water. After two minutes, submerse broccoli into an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
Peel two of tangerines, separate the segments, and cut them in half. Place the tangerines, broccoli, pomegranate seeds, fennel, avocado, and almonds into a medium bowl.
Drizzle olive oil and juice of the last tangerine over salad. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

the rolls are so cute!!! they look delicious!
I have been bookmarking all of your butternut squash recipes, but this one is going to the top of the list! The goat cheese is the perfect flavor accompaniment.
Yay! Another recipe to add to my to-make list. It’s great that you can freeze this because my fiance doesn’t like butternut squash. I can make the whole thing for myself and take it for lunches!
So delicious! I’m loving this week long butternut squash event…so many tasty recipes!
Awesome and delicious-looking idea! I love lasagna that’s different from the typical and butternut squash is perfect!

I’ve never though of squash rolled up in lasagna noodles–love the idea!!
Delicious use of the squash. I love this lasagna rolls.
I like lasagna rolls too – so much more fun than a traditional lasagna. I like the simplicity of this recipe too. Sounds delicious. I’d love to see you improve Martha’s butternut mac and cheese!!
These lasagna rolls look ADORABLE! I love the idea of a freezer meal party!
what a fabulous idea for freezer meals! and these sound DELISH 🙂
I made these again a few weeks ago – I almost forgot how delicious they are! I love that you subbed in the Greek yogurt and goat cheese, mmm 🙂
I’m making a meatless alternative with a spinach bechamel sauce… Although I do love bacon…
