It's officially Summer here in Queensland and so it's getting hot and humid. Super.
When you're hot and hungry all you want is something simple that doesn't require a lot of time and effort. Nobody wants to stand cooking in the kitchen when it's a million degrees!
So today I made myself a roasted pumpkin salad! So what you'll need is:
- 1/4 pumpkin, deseeded, peeled, cut into cubes
- 3 tbs canola oil
- 1 tbs fresh lemon juice
- 2 tbs extra virgin olive oil
- handful of lettuce or baby spinach
- 1 x 75g pkt toasted pine nuts
- feta cheese
- roasted chicken breast (optional)
I cut up the amount of pumpkin I wanted, placed it in a tray greased with canola oil and put it in the oven that was preheated to 180*
Let that cook for 15mins (you can leave it on longer if you want your pumpkin more crispy!) and get your other ingredients all ready.
The feta I used is absolutely delish! It's marinated in herbs and oil, I just get it from my local Coles!
Yum yum! I also added some chicken for some protein and sprinkled on the pine nuts.
Something quick and easy that takes no time at all! Yay!
