BBQ Butternut Squash Tacos with Que Queen’s Jammin’ Reduced Sugar BBQ Sauce

BBQ Butternut Squash Tacos with Que Queen’s Jammin’ Reduced Sugar BBQ Sauce

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium butternut squash, peeled and cubed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup Que Queen’s Jammin’ Reduced Sugar BBQ Sauce
  • 8 small corn or flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded red cabbage
  • 1/2 cup diced avocado
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 cup vegan sour cream (optional)
  • Lime wedges for serving

Instructions:

  1. Preheat & Prep Squash: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large mixing bowl, toss the cubed butternut squash with olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

  2. Roast the Squash: Spread the seasoned butternut squash in an even layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the squash is tender and slightly caramelized on the edges.

  3. Add the BBQ Sauce: Once the squash is roasted, remove it from the oven and toss it with Que Queen’s Jammin’ Reduced Sugar BBQ Sauce while still warm. Ensure all the pieces are well-coated.

  4. Assemble the Tacos: Warm the tortillas (either in a pan or microwave) and layer each one with a generous scoop of BBQ butternut squash, shredded red cabbage, diced avocado, and chopped cilantro. Drizzle with vegan sour cream, if using.

  5. Serve: Squeeze fresh lime juice over the tacos just before serving for a zesty kick!

Pro Tip:

For added texture, try topping these tacos with crispy fried onions or toasted pumpkin seeds.

Pairing Suggestions:

  • Serve with a side of black beans and rice for a complete plant-based meal.
  • Pair these tacos with a light and refreshing mango salsa to complement the BBQ flavors.
