For a simple Autumn/Winter warm salad it's hard to beat this one. Pumpkin may have a high GI but the glycemic load is low due to it's high water content. What does that mean in simple terms? It's low in carbs compared to potato and sweet potato, it is packed full of beta carotene and is a good source of fibre - when you leave the skin on.
Preheat the oven to 220 C
Toss the cut pumpkin and garlic in 1 tbs olive oil. Place in a baking tray and bake in the oven for 25 minutes.
Meanwhile combine the remaining olive oil, sesame oil, chili, lemon and tamari together in a small jar.
Toast the sesame seeds in small fry pan until golden.
Toss the dressing through the leaves then arrange the pumpkin over the leaves.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve
