A delicious salad with loads of different textures ….

I love fall. When the weather is not too hot but still warm I feel like coming home. All the colours and the smell of the fresh air is just amazing. You might go for a walk beneath colourful trees and pick up some chestnuts.  Especially this year I am enjoying fall in all its facettes. I love to put some candles and soft music next ot me while studying. The best part: Finally, you can put on some wool socks and cook delicious recipes with pumpkin. Like this salad….

I hate boring salads. So if I eat one, then it has to be with different textures and kinds of flavours which might seem strange first. Within this salad I combined all the ingredients that I associate with autumn and it turned out to be very delicious. Together with some sort of bread or a baguette this meal is just the salad of your dreams. Many of you may see salad as a diet food. But it is so much more. The mouthwatering taste of baked pumpkin combined with the sweet flavour of a fig and some fresh crunch of bell pepper is just perfect to be mixed up in a salad… Almost forgot the best: feta wrapped with some (vegan) bacon.

Preperation:

  • First the preparation: Get your salad and wash it. Then cut the pumpkin (you can eat the peel of a hokkaido as well as a squash), the potato and some bell pepper into little chunks and the fig in quarters. Preaheat the oven and put the pumpkin and potato chunks on a baking tray. Drizzle them with oil and some salt and bake them for roundabout 15-20 minutes.

  • In the meanwhile give the salad a wash and slice the feta in those kind of sticks you can see on the picture above. Wrap the (vegan) bacon around and add it to the vegetables in the oven for about 10minutes. Fry an egg and cook your rice noodles.

  • If all your ingredients are ready to be eaten, put them in a bowl  and drizzle with some olive oil as well as vinegar, some salt and sweetener. Mix everything together and top it with the feta wrapped with bacon and an egg. Decorate with some nuts if you like to.
