Serves: 2<br />

Ingredients<br />

4–6 wedges roast butternut<br />

squash<br />

1 can chickpeas, drained<br />

2 handfuls baby spinach<br />

Small handful almonds<br />

4–6 tbsp natural yoghurt<br />

Method<br />

1. If <strong>the</strong> squash is cold, warm<br />

in <strong>the</strong> oven (200°C/400°F for<br />

10 minutes) or heat with a<br />

little oil in a frying pan.<br />

2. Add chickpeas and allow to<br />

warm for a few minutes.<br />

3. Divide baby spinach on<br />

two plates. Top with warm<br />

chickpeas and squash.<br />

4. Season yoghurt generously<br />

with salt and pepper and<br />

drizzle over <strong>the</strong> salad. Top<br />

with almonds.<br />

Variations<br />

Dairy-free/vegan: make a tahini dressing instead using 2 tbsp each<br />

tahini, lemon juice, water and olive oil.<br />

Don’t have any roast squash?: replace with o<strong>the</strong>r roast veg OR some<br />

roast red capsicum (bell peppers). Or finely sliced fresh red capsicum<br />

(bell peppers).<br />

Nut-free: just skip <strong>the</strong> almonds or replace with a handful of toasted<br />

sourdough breadcrumbs.<br />

Chickpea alternatives: any cooked or canned legumes are good<br />

here. Try cannellini beans or lentils. Puy or French-style lentils are<br />

particularly lovely. Or just double <strong>the</strong> roast squash and forget about<br />

<strong>the</strong> chickpeas.<br />
