Ingredients
  

For the salad:

  • 1 butternut squash
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • 4 cups arugula
  • 1 pomegranate arils removed
  • 1/3 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1/3 cup halloumi sliced and pan fried (optional)

For the dressing:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • Peel and chop the butternut squash into 1 inch cubes. Place onto a baking sheet and drizzle with the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and roast in the oven for approximately 35 minutes or until the squash is fork tender. Be sure to check on the squash after 20 minutes of cooking and flip the cubes. Remove from oven and let cool.
  • Place all the dressing ingredients in a jar with a secure lid and shake to combine.
  • Place arugula in a salad bowl and toss with as much dressing as desired. Top with the squash, pomegranate arils, pumpkin seeds, and halloumi* (if using). Serve.

Notes

To pan fry the halloumi, heat a little olive oil in a pan over medium heat and add the halloumi. Cook for about a minute on each side or until it begins to brown nicely.
