Steps:
- Pierce each squash in several places to allow steam to escape, then place 2 inches apart in the microwave. Microwave on high for 6 minutes. Remove to a cutting board.
- Cut each squash in half crosswise; remove and discard seeds. Arrange halves with cut-sides down on a microwave-safe plate.
- Cover tightly with plastic wrap and microwave until tender, 7 to 9 minutes. Remove stems and cut a thin slice from the pointed ends to prevent tipping. Flip so cut-sides are facing up.
- Mix graham cracker crumbs, pecans, butter, brown sugar, and nutmeg in a bowl. Spoon 1/4 of the mixture into each squash half.
- Microwave, uncovered, until filling is heated through, 2 to 5 minutes.
- Serve topped with cranberry sauce.

- Add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil and 1/2 tablespoon brown or coconut sugar to each squash half; use your hands to rub into the flesh of the squash, even on the top (but not on the skin). Sprinkle each squash half with a little bit of cinnamon. Place flesh side down on baking sheet and roast in the oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until squash is just fork tender.
- While the squash roasts, you can make the quinoa. Add quinoa, water and thyme sprigs to a large pot and place over medium high heat. Bring to a boil, then cover, reduce heat to low and cook for exactly 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, remove from heat and fluff quinoa with a fork. Remove thyme sprigs from quinoa and discard.
- Next stir in coconut oil, orange juice, honey, turmeric and salt and stir to combine. Fold in dried cranberries and chopped pecans.

- Preheat the oven to 180C/160Fan/350F/Gas mark 4. Place the peeled and diced squash in a roasting tin, drizzle over the olive oil and sprinkle over the ground cinnamon. Season with sea salt and black pepper. Roast for 40--45 minutes or until soft and caramelised.
- Place a frying pan over a medium-high heat and add the pecan nuts for a couple of minutes or until toasted. They burn very very quickly, so don't leave the pan! When the nuts have toasted, remove from the heat and tip into a heat proof bowl.
- For the dressing, mix together the oil, orange juice, maple syrup, mustard and add a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Arrange the salad leaves in a large bowl and pour over most of the dressing. Add the roasted squash, pecan nuts, dried cranberries, feta cheese and pumpkin seeds. Pour over the remaining dressing and serve.
