Another bean that I find works really well with the dark orange winter squash is black beans. They just meld in nicely with the sweetness, and seem to 'cream' in perfectly. This looks really good.

Coincidentally, I just bought some kabocha seeds yesterday. I was hoping no one would notice that I left the butternut in the oven too long… Thanks for the recommendation on kabocha.

You know what would be even better than butternut squash? Japanese kabocha pumpkin, which holds its shape better when roasting. It is drier, so you'd need more liquid in the dressing, but it's gorgeous and I grew some last year, so it can be sourced at home. I’ve had my eye on this salad!
