We are a hummus loving household, and roasted squash is one of our go-to ingredients for just about anything. I keep it in our fridge for a ton of recipes and it’s a great make-ahead for later ingredient.
Here I’ve used butternut squash but you can use any squash. It can also make for a creamy sweet dahl base, pasta sauce, add it to salads or blend it into soup.
Start by scoring the squash in a criss cross pattern. Add a little oil in the middle with half a teaspoon of sage and a little onion powder, mix and spread out of the scored squash.
Bake for 25-30 minutes at 180 degrees C.
This recipe is:
Creamy
Savoury
Delicious
Loaded with veggies
& Spicy (add as much spice as you can handle)
Here you can find the recipe to my avocado and basil hummus, it’s also rich and creamy and super simple. Not spicy at all and has added moringa powder.
