Equipment

  • Immersion blender, potato masher, or food processor

Ingredients
  

  • 3-4 cups butternut squash cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
  • 2 tablespoons chickpea miso
  • 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt plus more to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread cubed squash evenly on the baking sheet and roast 25 to 30 minutes or until fork tender.
  • In a large mixing bowl*, combine the roasted squash, nutritional yeast, chickpea miso, dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Blend or mash until all ingredients are combined and consistency is mostly creamy (there might still be some squash chunks). Give everything a good stir with a spatula or wooden spoon. Serve warm.
