kabocha squash tempeh bake

45 minutes

1 onion, peeled and chopped
1 medium kabocha squash, pulp removed and cut into 1inch chunks (no need to peel this variety!)
1 8 ounce package of tempeh, cut into 1 inch chunks
1/4 cup pine nuts (optional)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons dried thyme
2 tablespoons olive oil
sri racha (optional)
sweet chili sauce (optional)

brown rice, cooked


preheat oven to 450. place all ingredients in a large bowl and toss to coat with olive oil. pour mixture in 9 x 13 casserole. i use a smaller one to fit in the toaster oven. reduce oven to 375. cover loosely with foil and bake for 30 minutes or until squash is tender.

we serve over rice and add a little sri racha and sweet chili sauce to spice it up. totally not necessary but we are condiment junkies so we have to embellish.
