Serves 6-8
Ingredients:
- 1 Red Kuri Squash, seeded and cut into half moons
- 2 tbs. maple syrup
- 2 tbs. olive oil, divided
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- 3 cloves of garlic, sliced
- 3 bunches of mixed greens, chopped (bok choy, kale, collards, Swiss chard, spinach)
- Fresh juice from a whole lemon
- Salt & pepper to taste
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Place the cut squash into a mixing bowl and add the maple syrup, 1 tbs. of olive oil and cinnamon to the bowl. Mix well with your hands until all of the squash is coated.
Place the squash onto the baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes or until fork tender.
Heat up the remaining 1 tbs. of olive oil in a large skillet or wok pan. Add the sliced garlic and once the garlic has browned, add in your greens and toss with tongs until they wilt. When ready remove from heat and add the fresh lemon juice. Add salt and pepper and toss until mixed.
Arrange the roasted squash over the cooked greens and serve.
