Ingredients
  

  • 1 head cauliflower chopped
  • 1 can drained chickpeas
  • 4 cups butternut squash chopped
  • 4 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon turmeric
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ tablespoon chili powder
  • 1-2 tablespoon honey
  • 1 Vidalia onion thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon harissa
  • The juice of 1 lime
  • 1 cup fresh cilantro roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoon fresh mint roughly chopped
  • 4 ounces feta crumbled
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400F. Line 2 baking sheets with tinfoil. Place butternut squash on one sheet, and the cauliflower and chick peas on the other. Toss veggies with olive oil, smoked paprika, turmeric, ginger, chili powder, salt and pepper and bake for 30 minutes then remove form oven.
  • Drizzle the butternut squash side with honey and toss- adding 1 tablespoon more if it’s not in season and isn’t very sweet. Put the squash on the other baking sheet and add the sliced raw onion and harissa paste. Toss everything together as the residual heat softens the onion.
  • Finish by squeezing the juice from 1 lime over the mixture then plate. Finish with the chopped cilantro, mint and feta. Salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

If you don't have harissa or can't find it at your local grocery store - feel free to use sriracha, sambal or another chili pepper paste.
