- 1/3 cup pecans
- Sprinkle of Feta Cheese (you can add tofu or vegan cheese) to make it dairy free
- Omega Nutrition Avocado Oil or any vegetable oil
For the Flaxseed Dressing
- 2 tbsp freshly squeezed blood orange juice
- 1 tbsp Omega Nutrition Apple Cider Vinegar or Red Wine Vinegar
- 3 tbsp Omega Nutrition Hi-Lignan Flaxseed Oil

Method
Roasted Squash: Preheat oven to 425 F (218 C). Arrange squash on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with Omega Nutrition Avocado Oil, salt, and pepper and toss to coat. Spread in an even layer. Roast squash for 15-20 minutes or until tender and golden brown.
Dressing: In the meantime, prepare dressing by adding all dressing ingredients to a bowl. Whisk together and set aside. You get to choose how acidic you like your dressing to be. We recommend a ratio of 3:1 oil and vinegar.
To serve: Arrange arugula to a platter or serving bowl and top with roasted squash, crunchy pecans, feta or vegan cheese. Drizzle with dressing.
