Method

Directions

1

Prepare the squash

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and dice the butternut squash into small cubes. Place the cubes on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until tender and slightly caramelized.

2

Make the benne vinaigrette

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, and benne seeds. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

3

Whip the coconut cream

In a mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or whisk to whip the coconut cream until smooth and fluffy. If desired, add a pinch of salt for flavor.

4

Combine the salad

In a large bowl, combine the roasted butternut squash, diced apple, and puffed rice. Drizzle with the benne vinaigrette and toss gently to combine.

5

Serve

Plate the squash and apple mixture and top with the whipped coconut cream. Serve immediately.
