Salad with creamy dill dressing

Hot cocoa
______________________________________________________________
It feels very spring-y here in Buffalo and we're especially grateful given that the middle part of our country got a fair amount of snow this weekend. M and I did our first big spring yard clean-up yesterday and we had a lovely soaking spring rain this morning that transitioned to warm, bright sun by this afternoon. What a perfect day for a primavera celebration! Despite this, both M and I are tuckered today, so our side is a simple green salad. Regardless of complexity, this is a fantastic, seasonal meal that we relish returning to :)

Prep Notes
Difficulty: Easy
Chopping: Squash, garlic, Asiago, basil, parsley, dill (for dressing)
Time: 35 minutes
Make ahead: I like this best fresh, but you can re-heat it - just don't let the sauce come to a boil.

Reaction
J: "Rain, then sun, plus crocus = primavera"
M: "A wonderful taste of spring!"
