Ingredients

  • 12 ounces butternut squash – peeled, seeded, and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 small yellow onion, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, divided
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
  • kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 6 ounces kale, roughly chopped
  • ¼ cup vegetable broth

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2
Place squash into a large bowl. Add onion, 1 1/2 tablespoons vinegar, brown sugar, oil, salt, and pepper; toss to coat. Spread mixture in a single layer onto a baking sheet.

Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until squash is tender and golden, 30 to 40 minutes. Set aside.

Step 4
Combine kale and broth in a heavy-bottom skillet over medium heat; bring to a light simmer. Cover the skillet, reduce heat, and cook until kale is tender but still bright green, about 5 minutes; drain any excess liquid.

Step 5
Mix together kale, squash mixture, and remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons vinegar in a serving bowl.
