  • 2 lbs. butternut squash
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil

Toss squash with olive oil to coat; place in a single layer in a lightly greased aluminum foil-lined 15x10-inch jelly-roll pan. Bake 20 minutes until squash is slightly tender, stirring once after 10 minutes. Cool completely.

2. Toss together cannellini beans, next 4 ingredients, and squash in a large bowl; cover and chill 2 to 4 hours. Toss with arugula just before serving.
