Instructions

- Place sweet potatoes and acorn squash on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Drizzle with olive oil and salt, and roast in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until squash and potatoes are tender and golden.
- Whisk together olive oil, hot sauce, maple syrup, honey, vinegar, and garlic. Set aside.
- Once the squash and sweet potatoes have had a few minutes to cool, arrange on platter and drizzle with dressing.

Notes
- If you want to peel acorn squash before roasting, poke it a few times with a fork, and pop it in the microwave for 3 to 4 minutes. The microwave softens and loosens the skin, making it easier to peel using a potato peeler.
- Nutritional facts do not include garnishes.
- Turn the vegetables one to two times during cooking for even cooking.
- If you are preparing this salad in advance, reserve the dressing on the side until you are ready to serve.
- Roasted sweet potatoes and acorn squash will keep in the fridge for up to three days.
- Dressing will keep in the fridge for up to 10 days.
