Chopped Kale Salad with Roasted Delicata Squash and Crispy Shallots

finely chopped Tuscan or Lacinto kale (not baby kale)

parmesan crusted delicata squash and crispy shallots (I'd cooked it earlier in the evening for my family)- make sure you get some of the crispy shallots in there too.

diced apple (I've learned with macros I like everything chopped smaller so it spreads farther)

slice bacon, crumbled (I use and love Kirkland precooked)

chopped grilled chicken

low fat blue cheese (or quality shaved parmesan is so good too)

dried cranberries

red onions

fresh basil (if I have it on hand--fresh herbs make everything better!)

Trader Joes Champagne Pear Vinaigrette

Bolthouse Classic Balsamic*

Fresh Lemon Juice

kosher salt and fresh ground pepper
