Roasted Butternut Squash with Lime Juice

This roasted butternut squash with lime juice is a vibrant and zesty addition to any plant-based menu. By roasting the squash at a high temperature, the natural sugars caramelise beautifully, creating a depth of flavour that pairs perfectly with the sharpness of fresh citrus. The addition of aromatic rosemary provides an earthy finish, making this a sophisticated yet simple side dish for any occasion.

As a versatile vegan dish, this recipe works equally well as a warm salad component or a hearty accompaniment to a Sunday roast. It is particularly practical for entertaining, as the squash can be prepared ahead of time and reheated just before serving. Rich in vitamins and naturally gluten-free, it is a healthy, colourful option that brings a bright, modern twist to traditional autumn vegetables.
