Roasted Butternut Squash with Spinach and Cranberries
Serves 4–6
- 1 butternut squash
- ½ cup chopped red onion
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper
- 4 cups fresh spinach, cleaned with stems removed
- ½ cup dried cranberries
- ½ cup chopped roasted pecans or almonds
Preheat oven to 450°F.
Peel squash, then cut in half. Remove seeds and stringy pulp from the center. Cut each half lengthwise into 1-inch slices. Dice each slice into 1-inch cubes. Place cubes in a mixing bowl with diced red onion, extra virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine. Transfer to a foil- or parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast 25–30 minutes or until squash becomes tender and starts to brown.
Toss the roasted squash and onion with spinach, dried cranberries, and ¼ cup of the chopped pecans in a serving bowl. Top with the rest of the pecans and serve warm.
