Instructions
Roast the Vegetables
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Toss squash and Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Spread on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway, until caramelized and tender.
Toast the Nuts
Add pecans to the pan for the last 5–7 minutes of roasting, or toast separately in a dry pan.
Make the Balsamic Glaze
Simmer balsamic vinegar and honey in a small saucepan over medium-low heat.
Reduce until thick and syrupy (about 8–10 minutes). Cool slightly.
Assemble the Salad
Transfer roasted veggies to a serving platter.
Sprinkle with dried cranberries, toasted pecans, and feta.
Drizzle generously with balsamic glaze.
