Description

A vibrant, nutrient-packed salad featuring caramelized roasted vegetables tossed in a creamy maple tahini dressing.


Ingredients

Scale

1 medium butternut squash, peeled and cubed
4 large carrots, sliced into 1-inch chunks
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoons tahini
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 cup toasted pumpkin seeds
Fresh parsley for garnish


Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a large bowl, toss the cubed butternut squash and sliced carrots with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Step 3: Spread the vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they aren't crowded.
Step 4: Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and have caramelized edges, tossing halfway through.
Step 5: While roasting, whisk together the tahini, maple syrup, and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth. Add a splash of water if needed to reach a drizzling consistency.
Step 6: Allow the roasted vegetables to cool slightly, then transfer to a serving bowl and drizzle with the maple tahini dressing.
Step 7: Garnish with toasted pumpkin seeds and fresh parsley before serving the roasted carrot and butternut squash salad.

Notes

Ensure the vegetables are cut to a similar size for even roasting.
