Roasted Butternut Squash And Halloumi Salad Recipe Ideas Healthy Easy

BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND HALLOUMI SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine butternut squash pieces, 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl; mix to combine. Place on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until butternut squash is tender, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring water to a boil in a saucepan; remove from heat and stir in couscous. Cover saucepan and let stand until water is absorbed completely, about 10 minutes. Fluff couscous with a fork.
• Place green beans into a large skillet over high heat and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until beans are soft, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Preheat a nonstick frying pan over high heat. Place halloumi cheese slices on a plate and brush both sides lightly with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Cook cheese in the hot pan until each slice develops a deep brown crust, about 1 minute on the first side and 1 to 2 minutes on the other.
• Allow all ingredients to cool. Combine roasted squash, green beans, halloumi cheese, couscous, and pine nuts in a bowl. Drizzle with honey mustard dressing.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND HALLOUMI SALAD RECIPE IDEAS - HEALTHY & EASY RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200°C (gas mark 6). Cut the butternut squash into eight wedges lengthways. Remove the reserve of seeds. Halve or quarter the beetroots, depending on their size. Place the squash, seeds, onions and garlic in a large baking tray and drizzle with olive oil. Wrap the beetroot in tin foil and place in a separate baking tray.
• Put the squash and beetroot in the oven and roast for 40 minutes, or until tender, turning the onions occasionally - the times may vary and the squash may cook before the beetroot. Remove the squash seeds when coloured and crisp.
• Just before serving, take the squash and onions out of the baking tray and add the halloumi to the tray (with any oil that remains). Place in the oven and cook for about 10 minutes or until golden.
• To serve, combine the vegetables and halloumi with the chickpeas, spices and parsley leaves. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper and serve drizzled with a little extra olive oil. Serve warm or at room temperature.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND KALE STRATA

Steps:

• Heat your oven to 400 degrees F.
• Toss the butternut squash onto a large sheet pan along with the garlic cloves and onion. Drizzle with the olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss well to combine. Roast, stirring once halfway through cooking, until tender and caramelized, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Lightly grease a 9-by-13-inch (3- to 3 1/2-liter) casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, beat together the eggs then whisk in the milk and/or cream, mustard, smoked paprika, nutmeg, 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Squeeze the roasted garlic from its skins, mash with a fork into a paste and whisk into the egg mixture.
• Cut the bread into 1-inch cubes and scatter half into the prepared casserole dish followed by half of the kale, half the herbs and half of the roasted squash and onions. Repeat these layers with the remaining bread, kale, herbs and roasted veg, then pour over the egg mixture. Scatter the grated cheese overtop and cover with a lightly greased piece of aluminum foil. Set aside for at least 30 minutes.
• Heat your oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the covered strata for 25 minutes then carefully remove the foil and continue to bake until puffed, golden brown and the center is set, for another 25 minutes. Allow it to sit for 10 minutes before serving.
