What you need:
For the glazed Honeynut squash:
2 medium Honeynut squash, cut in half and de-seeded
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ teaspoon granulated garlic
½ teaspoon sumac
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground coriander
1½ teaspoon coconut sugar
For the mint-feta topping:
½ pomegranate, seeded
½ cup vegan feta crumbles

What you do:
- For the squash, preheat oven to 375 degrees. Onto a large baking sheet, place squash and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with garlic, sumac, pepper, salt, coriander, and coconut sugar. Using your hands, rub squash until spices are well-coated. Place top sides down, and bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until fork tender.
