Serves 4 to 6
Time 1 hr 5 min
Citrus-ale vinaigrette made with fruity, hoppy India Pale Ale brightens a colorful tumble of sweet, hearty root vegetables and greens. This satisfying salad can easily make a meal (just serve with whole grain bread and sharp cheese), but it’s also a nice side dish alongside roasted meats.
