Ingredients

Butternut Squash

  • 1 1/2 cups butternut squash , chopped
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tbsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp ground coriander
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Tacos

  • Corn tortillas
  • Cooked rice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.

  2. Chop enough butternut squash to fill at least 1 1/2 cups (this should equal 1 cup of butternut squash after roasting). Place chopped butternut squash in a bowl along with the remaining butternut squash ingredient. Stir so all of the butternut squash is coated in the seasoning.

  4. Assemble tacos with rice, beans, butternut squash, cranberries, cilantro and top with optional hot sauce and lime juice. Enjoy!
