AUTUMN SALAD WITH BUTTERNUT SQUASH



Autumn Salad with Butternut Squash image

I made this fall salad for a Thanksgiving potluck, wanting to use mostly seasonal ingredients. Any squash would work, but I am partial to the sweetness and color of butternut. I like salads to have a combination of cooked and raw, sweet and salty, soft and crunchy. Judging by the demands for the recipe, I think it was a winner!

1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
One 2-pound butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cut into 1-inch cubes (about 5 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
