• Kabocha Squash • Avocado Oil • Lacinato Kale Stems • Pecan Halves • Pomegranate Seeds • Salt & Pepper

Dressing • Garlic • Apple Cider Vinegar • Dijon Mustard • Maple Syrup • Extra Virgin Olive Oil • Salt & Pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

Place cubed squash on a baking sheet. Toss with oil, salt, and pepper. Coat garlic with oil, and wrap with foil. Roast for 35-40 minutes.
