Roasted Kabocha Squash

Roasted Kabocha Squash

If you haven’t tried Kabocha Squash, allow me to introduce you to your new favorite fall squash. For this recipe, I made an absolutely delicious maple greek yogurt to drizzle on top, along with crispy pistachios and sweet pomegranate seeds, and let me tell you, it was one of the best things I’ve ever had. It’s lightly sweet, creamy, and the perfect side dish!
