Spice blends, like the ras el hanout used in this butternut squash with herb salad, are a great way to add extra flavor without having to have lots of spices on hand. Other blends like garam masala or za’atar seasoning would be a great substitute here.

Mississippi meet Morocco! I had no idea what ras el hanout was, so I ordered it on amazon. I did the roasting part, but I was pairing it with Mississippi crockpot roast (vinegar based) so I skipped the salad part. It was all delicious! We talked about maybe Hawaiian or Ciabatta rolls with Havarti cheese as a topper. Or just something crunchy with it. Keeper for sure!
