Serves 2-3
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups cubed butternut squash
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp light brown sugar
- 1 bunch kale, stems removed
- 6 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 tbsp Dijon mustard

- fresh ground pepper
- 1/2 cup sliced, raw almonds
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400ºF. Line baking sheet with foil.
- In a small bowl, add 3 tbsp olive oil, balsamic vinegar and mustard. Whisk until dressing is combined.
- In medium bowl, combine squash, 2 tbsp olive oil, brown sugar and cinnamon. Toss until coated. Transfer to foil-lined baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, turning once or twice. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- In the meantime, over high heat, add 1 tbsp olive oil to a large skillet. Add kale and cook until slightly wilted. Leaves will turn a bright green, then you know it’s done. Cook time will be able 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool about 5 minutes.
