Spiced Butternut Squash

INGREDIENTS
1 butternut squash, seeds removed and sliced into 1 inch rounds or moon shapes (we prefer skin on for extra fiber!)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 1/2 tbsp Togarashi spice (or substitute with a blend of 1 tsp toasted sesame, 1 tsp orange zest, 1 tsp chili flakes, grind fresh pepper, 1/2 tsp flaky sea salt)
2 tbsp Seed + Mill Organic Tahini (any of our flavors would be delicious here!)
STEPS
1. Preheat oven to 400 °F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a bowl, coat squash slices in olive oil and toss with Togarashi, mixing well to coat each piece.
3. Lay out butternut squash pieces in a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, making sure each piece is separated.
4. Roast until golden brown, about 30 minutes.

Creamy Vegan Shepherd's Pie
As far as cozy winter food goes, it's hard to beat a Shepherd's Pie. It's hearty and warming, perfect for the days when the sun sets at 5 and it's too cold to leave the house. As much as we enjoy the traditional version, we also love a plant based option, using lentils in place of ground meat. The tahini is a great substitute here for butter in the mashed potato topping, and adds a rich, creaminess to the filling. Our founder, Rachel's husband and kids enjoyed this dish for dinner the day we shot this picture and gave it a big unanimous thumbs up!

Gena Hamshaw's Broccoli Tahini Pesto Pasta
"I usually toss cooked vegetables into my dinner pastas for added fiber and nutrition. This recipe--which calls for an entire head of cooked broccoli--takes that effort to a whole new level. Half of the broccoli gets chopped and added to the pasta, while the remaining half is pureed into a bright green, tahini-based pesto. The creamy texture of this pesto gives more body to the finished recipe than an oil-based pesto would. Untraditional as it is, it has become by favorite pesto for using in pasta dishes."
