Ingredients
Scale
- 1 small kabocha squash, peeled, seeded and cut into thin strips
- 2 lbs . Brussel sprouts, halved
- 1 can white beans, drained
- 1/4 cup diced apricots
- 1/4 cup pomegranate seeds
- Avocado oil OR olive oil

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Toss the squash with a small amount of oil and salt. Spread out in a single layer on a baking sheet. You may need two baking sheets depending on their size. Bake until the squash begins to caramelize, about 25-30 minutes.

Cook until softened and slightly browned. If your oven isn't large enough to fit multiple sheet pans at one time. Finish cooking the squash and then roast the brussels sprouts for 20 minutes.
- While the vegetables are browning, whisk all of the dressing ingredients together.
- Once the vegetables are cooked, toss them together with the beans, apricots, pomegranate seeds, and dressing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
