Here’s the salad that I serve with my roast chicken with turkey rice stuffing. Let have this warm salad for cool weather and its healthy with Moroccan dressing to brings you the atmosphere of beautiful sunny cozy day with family and friends.

I know salad are mostly serve cold, fresh not cooked or roasted, but salad can be a technique that you can apply to if you are free and creative. I as being keen to explore the various technique have decided to add my salad in the oven to absorb the flavour juiciness of the vegetables then added to the vinaigrette.

Today, my warm salad is coated with Moroccan dressing, to make me feel like I am in summer time. This warm salad is hearty comfort, delicious and when I breath; I smell in the aroma of Moroccan that filled my house and enjoy it by the fireplace with a glass of red wine.
