This dish is a great make-ahead meal. You can roast the vegetables and make the dressing ahead of time, and then just assemble the salad when you're ready to serve.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The roasted vegetables are sweet and savory, and the mustard-currant dressing is tangy and a little bit spicy.
