Loaded Fall Salad - Smile Sandwich

Thank you, Lipton, for sponsoring this post! All opinions are 100% my own.

This Loaded Fall Salad is the perfect autumn side dish recipe that’s a great addition to any meal. Reimagine mealtime with a side that goes beyond your typical green salad.

Someone once said you don’t win friends with salad. But I’d beg to differ.

This Loaded Fall Salad is one of my favorite recipes to make for lunch, a side dish recipe, or even Thanksgiving dinner! It’s loaded with roasted sweet potatoes and beets, red onion, apples, brussels sprouts and walnuts.

Top it all off with a maple vinaigrette and you’ve got yourself one heck of a salad.

Of course, what’s a salad without a refreshing drink to accompany it? My mom has been buying Lipton Iced Teas since I can remember. Now, we always look forward to visiting her because we know she’ll always be stocked up.

The Diet Green Tea Citrus flavored iced tea has always been my favorite, so I always make sure to keep some on hand to accompany any meal.

This Loaded Fall Salad recipe is just begging to be paired with an icy cold Lipton tea. I love that they come in convenient bottles so I can pack one for work along with my delicious salad.

I love that this maple vinaigrette has a slightly sweet yet tangy taste that compliments the fall veggies perfectly.

To make things easier, I would recommend roasting the beets and sweet potatoes in advance (Sunday meal prep, anyone?) so that your salad comes together super quick when it’s dinnertime!

This salad also makes a great packable lunch if you’re always on-the-go like I am! The veggies hold up in the refrigerator nicely.

So, next time you’re looking to reimagine your mealtime, give the plain old caesar a rest and instead give this Loaded Fall Salad a try. It’s a great way to use up in-season fall produce!
