INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1: Preheat oven to 425˚F (220˚F). Line baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside. Stir together oil, vinegar, maple syrup, salt and pepper. Toss squash with 4 tsp (20 mL) of the dressing; arrange on prepared pan. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until tender. |
Step 2: Meanwhile, heat rice according to package directions. |
Step 3: Toss warm rice with hot roasted squash and kale until kale wilts; toss with remaining dressing. Stir in chicken (if using) and dried cranberries. |
Tips:
Roast 1 chopped apple along with butternut squash if desired.
This dish is just as delicious with sweet potato or pumpkin substituted for the butternut squash.
