Lemon-thyme Roasted Delicatta Squash served with Cashew Cream Sour Cream Substitute (low-amine, gluten-free, soy-free, low-fat, paleo)

Lemon-thyme seasoned Delicatta squash is lightly savory. I like it because it has mildly fruity notes. It pairs well with fish or chicken, or can be an entree on its own with cashew cream (sour cream substitute).

Serves 4 (as a side dish)

2 small delicatta squash

2 Tbsp lemon-thyme (you should be able to get this at spice shops, but as a replacement, regular thyme and 1/2 tsp ascorbic acid ought to make a fair substitute).

3 small bay leaves

1/2 tsp ascorbic acid

1/4 tsp black pepper

Sauce:

1/2 C plain, low-fat yogurt (or equivalent cashew cream)

1 Tbsp dried basil

1 tsp pressed garlic

1/4 tsp salt

  • Move rack to middle-high and preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Cut squash in half (so that you can cut into rings) and “gut” them of seeds with a small spoon.

  • Cut squash into rings about 3/4″ thick and lay into Pyrex pan.
  • Add lemon-thyme, black pepper, ascorbic acid, and bay leaves to Pyrex and steep for 10 minutes in 1/2″ hot water. Cover with foil.

  • Bake for 15 minutes, then flip. Bake for another 15 minutes.
  • Uncover, and turn oven to broil. Broil for 5-10 minutes, or until Delicatta squash starts to brown.
  • While Delicatta squash is baking, in a small bowl, mix yogurt (or cashew cream), basil, garlic, and salt together.
  • Serve with yogurt / cashew cream dressing.
