Description

Maple glazed delicata squash on a piece of sourdough spread with creamy non-dairy yogurt, a simple arugula salad, and toasted walnuts.


Ingredients

Scale

Pan Roasted Squash

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 delicata squash, halved lengthwise, seeds removed, and sliced into 1/4 inch pieces
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup

Arugula Salad

  • 2 cups arugula
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup walnuts, roughly chopped

Serving

  • Sourdough, sliced and toasted
  • Non-dairy or dairy yogurt, cheese, cream cheese (I used coconut based yogurt)

Instructions

  1. Heat a cast iron pan over medium heat.
  2. Add olive oil and heat until shimmering and hot.
  3. Add squash, salt, and pepper.
  4. Cook for about 10 minutes tossing occasionally until golden brown and caramelized. 
  5. Drizzle maple syrup over squash and toss. Cook for 1-2 more minutes. Remove from heat.
  6. In the same pan, add walnuts and reduce heat to low and toast, tossing frequently, for 2 minutes until fragrant. Watch them closely! Remove from heat, sprinkle with salt, and set aside.
  7. Toss arugula “salad” ingredients together in a small bowl.
  8. Toast bread.
  9. To serve: spread 1-2 tablespoons of yogurt/ricotta/cheese on toasted bread. Top with arugula, squash, and sprinkle with toasted walnuts.

Notes

  • For your creamy component use non-dairy or dairy based yogurt, cream cheese, ricotta, or goat cheese.
  • If you cant find delicata squash, you can substitute for butternut squash with the skin removed.
