INSTRUCTIONS
For the Butternut Squash
First, preheat oven to 400ºF. Cube butternut squash, toss with oil and spices (of your choice), and spread out on a baking sheet. Place on the top rack of your oven, and roast at 400ºF for 15 minutes. Remove and toss. Then, place back on the top rack of your oven along with the chickpeas on your bottom rack. Roast for 15 more minutes.
For the Chickpeas
Rinse chickpeas, and toss with oil and spices. Spread chickpeas out on a baking sheet. Place on the bottom rack in the oven (below the squash). Roast for 15 minutes.

Place rice and water in a medium-sized pot and bring to a boil. Turn heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 20-30 minutes or until all water is absorbed.
