Tips:

  • Choose the right squash and sweet potatoes: Look for firm, heavy squash and sweet potatoes with smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid any that are soft, bruised, or have cuts or blemishes.
  • Cut the squash and sweet potatoes into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly. If the pieces are too large, they will take longer to cook and may not cook through evenly.
  • Toss the squash and sweet potatoes with olive oil and seasonings: This will help them brown and caramelize in the oven. You can use any seasonings you like, but some good options include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  • Roast the squash and sweet potatoes at a high temperature: This will help them caramelize and get crispy on the outside while staying tender on the inside. The ideal roasting temperature is 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Roast the squash and sweet potatoes until they are tender: You can check this by piercing them with a fork. If the fork goes through easily, they are done.
  • Top the squash and sweet potatoes with goat cheese and chopped walnuts: This will add a creamy, tangy flavor to the dish. You can also add other toppings, such as crumbled bacon, roasted chickpeas, or pomegranate seeds.

Conclusion:

Roasted squash and sweet potatoes with goat cheese is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a fall or winter meal. The squash and sweet potatoes are roasted until they are tender and caramelized, and the goat cheese adds a creamy, tangy flavor. This dish can be served as a side dish or a main course, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
