About 5 - 8 minutes before the
squash is
finished add the mushrooms to the baking tray with a drizzle more olive oil and a spinkling of rosemary and salt — before you
cook them you'll need to peel them and sliced them into pieces though.
- While the
squash roasts,
cook the ground beef by placing a medium - size non-stick pan over medium - high heat, and drizzling in about 1 tablespoon of olive oil; once the oil is hot, add in the onion, and saute for about 2 minutes; next, add in the ground beef and break it up with a spoon / spatula into small crumble; once the beef has slightly browned, add in a couple of pinches of salt and pepper, the garlic, the cumin, the cayenne and the cinnamon, and stir to combine; allow the beef to
finish browning, then turn the heat off, and turn the seasoned beef mixture out into a bowl; next, add to the beef the
cooked brown rice, the black beans, the quartered cherry tomatoes, the chopped cilantro, the sunflower seeds and the orange zest, and combine the ingredients very well; add another pinch of salt if needed, and set the mixture aside for a moment, keeping warm.
