Balsamic Roasted Kabocha Squash and Beets
Kabocha squash is one of those seasonal treats that’s only available for a short time each year. Roasting brings out the inherent natural sugars of the BCfresh squash and beets and gives it star status.
Ingredients
- 2 lb BCfresh Kabocha squash peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 lb BCfresh beets peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 lb BCfresh carrots peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tsp fleur de sel (sea salt) for roasting
- Freshly ground pepper for roasting
- Olive oil for drizzling
- Balsamic vinegar for drizzling
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme
- Crumbled chevre or feta
- Fleur de sel
- Freshly ground pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F. Place the cubed squash, beets, and carrots in a large bowl. Pour the oil and balsamic overtop, add the 2 tsp fleur de sel and ground pepper, and toss well to coat.
- Transfer to a large, rimmed baking sheet. Spread out into a single layer and bake in preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes until golden brown and tender.
- Transfer to a serving bowl and drizzle over a bit more olive oil and balsamic. Sprinkle the fresh thyme overtop, and garnish with the crumbled chevre. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
The picture shows carrots in the recipe and that is not listed in the ingredients
Thanks for pointing out the miss. We’ve updated the recipe to include carrots as an ingredient.
I picked up a gag of your Warhawk potatoes at Costco. Do you use glyphosate or any other chemical on your potatoes?
Hi Elaine, Thanks for your question. We do not use glyphosate. However, all farms, whether organic or conventional use some type of pesticide.
We work with crop management consultants that are experts in integrated pest management (IPM). The goal is to use the correct mix of fertilizers, pesticides, and other crop management materials in only the areas of the fields needed so we can harvest the absolute best produce with the lowest impact to the environment – all while ensuring guidelines are followed to ensure you receive safe produce. Hope that answers your question!
