Acorn Squash & Grilled Halloumi Salad

Soft and sweet roasted acorn squash is the perfect contrast to crunch, bitter radicchio. Studded with grilled slabs of halloumi cheese and bejeweled with pomegranate seeds, it’s perfect balance on a plate. Better yet, you can easily up the quantities of everything for a light side at the holidays that’s still seasonably filling.
