Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 medium-sized butternut squash, peeled and cubed

Sea salt + Black pepper
1/4 cup raw pecans or almonds
2 cups baby spinach or arugula, chopped
1/4 cup dried cranberries (optional)

Directions:
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and position a rack in the center of the oven.
2. Peel butternut squash with a vegetable peeler, remove seeds and chop into cubes. Toss butternut squash cubes in 1 Tbsp olive oil and 1 tsp sea salt and 1/2 tsp pepper. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until just tender. You don’t want it to get mushy, just tender.
3. Lower oven temp to 350 degrees, toss nuts in 1 Tbsp olive oil, and return to oven for 8-12 minutes, tossing every 5 minutes.
4. Chop or loosely tear your greens and add to a serving bowl along with the cranberries. Once nuts and squash are done, add to bowl.
5. Lastly, add remaining 1 Tbsp olive oil and 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar and toss. Add more salt or pepper if desired. Serve immediately. Goat or gorgonzola cheese is a brilliant addition.
