Wintertime salads like this one are every bit in season thanks to the always favorite combo ofย flavors of sweet glazed pecans, roasted beets and goat cheese that are always ready and available. And when fresh grilled shrimp is a topper, you’ve just made yourself an entire meal in oneย bowl.

I love winter. I love the snow. I love the cocooning and snuggling and general laze winter allows us to justify. Andย while I’m still obsessively checking my Weather app and welcoming every prediction of snowfall as if it was the first of the seasonโthanks Punxsutawney PhilโI do have to admit I am missing myself some rays of warm sunshine. Here in Northern Utahย the skies have either been weeping with snow, cloudyย and gray, or seeped in a valley inversion ever since Christmas. And I have toย admit, it’s starting to get to me. I’m not normally one to get the moody blues, not even a tinge of baby blues, but I can tell that missing my source of Vitamin D (Mr. Sunshine) has been messing with my psyche. Lately I’ve been really good at keeping my head down and sort of numbly going through the motionsย while ignoring a lot of what else is going on around me. So if you haven’t received an e-mail back from me, fear not, youย are not alone.Green Salad with Shrimp, Beets, Glazed Pecans and Goat Cheese
