Roasted Butternut Squash with Pecans, Cranberries, Feta & Tamari-Honey Glaze

"This Roasted Butternut Squash with Pecans, Cranberries, Feta & Tamari-Honey Glaze is a stunning side dish that's as delicious as it is beautiful. Tender cubes of caramelized butternut squash are tossed in a sweet and savory glaze made with San-J Tamari, hot honey, and aromatic spices-then topped with crunchy pecans, tart cranberries, and creamy feta for a perfect balance of flavors and textures."

"Butternut squash: The sweet, nutty star of the dish-perfectly caramelized when roasted. Avocado oil or olive oil: Helps the squash brown beautifully and adds richness. Hot honey (or regular honey with red pepper flakes): Adds a touch of heat and sweetness that balances the savory glaze. San-J Tamari: Brings deep umami flavor to the glaze, enhancing every bite. For a soy-free option, try San-J No Soy Tamari, which delivers the same rich, savory flavor without soy."

Tender cubes of caramelized butternut squash are roasted until browned and tossed in a sweet-and-savory glaze of San-J Tamari, hot honey (or honey with red pepper flakes), smoked paprika, garlic powder, and dried thyme. Toasted pecans add buttery crunch, dried cranberries provide tart sweetness, and crumbled feta supplies creamy, salty contrast; a dairy-free alternative can be substituted. Avocado or olive oil helps with browning and richness while kosher salt and black pepper season the dish. Fresh parsley brightens the finished plate. The dish is naturally gluten-free, vegetarian, visually striking, and suitable for weeknight dinners or festive holiday gatherings.
