Meaty Moroccan Lamb Salad With Yogurt Dressing

Last month I only created this new recipe for Moroccan Lamb Salad With Yogurt Dressing since I was travelling so much for work. However, now that my work schedule is slowly returning to normal, I’ve been wanting to make some more recipes to share once again.

When we did our market shopping, my husband said he felt like eating lamb, which made me think of making this salad.

This Moroccan Lamb Salad With Yogurt Dressing is filling and delicious. If you prep the roast pumpkin in advance, it also makes for a very quick meal. This salad could easily be made vegetarian by changing the lamb to Tempeh or Tofu.
