Creamy roasted squash with sage, orange zest, pecans, and a silky tofu twist.
Ingredients:
  • 1 (3 1/2) pound butternut, acorn or kabocha squash
  • 0.5 cup raisins
  • 0.5 cup chopped pecans, toasted
  • 0.25 cup roughly chopped parsley
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage
  • Zest of 1 orange, removed in wide strips and roughly chopped
  • 1 (16 ounce) package silken tofu, drained
  • 0.5 cup fine sea salt
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Roast the whole squash on a baking sheet until the skin is papery and the flesh is very tender when a fork is inserted in 2 or 3 different spots, approximately 1 1/4 hours. Let it cool, then peel away the skin and discard the seeds.
  • In a food processor, combine raisins, pecans, parsley, sage, and orange zest. Pulse until finely chopped, then transfer the mixture to a bowl. Clean out the food processor.
  • Puree warm squash and tofu in a clean food processor until velvety smooth. Reheat in a pot if necessary, then transfer to a large bowl or platter. Top with raisin-sage mixture and serve.
