Try this at home

  • Raw Spinach-one bunch
  • feta-200gm
  • tomatoes-3 or 4
  • pumpkin- 1 kg(or potatoes if you live in the US)
  • garlic-2 or 3 cloves
  • Fresh basil

Method:

Rinse the spinach, tear the spinach in half, put that spinach in a big salad bowl.
Take that feta, cut it up, crumble it into big ol' chunks.
Put those tomatoes on a cutting board, cut them in half and put them face up on a baking tray. Sliver up that garlic and put those slivers alllll over the tomato halves.
Douse it all in olive oil, put it in the oven for 10 minutes at 150 celsius, till it's kinda baked but not too mushy.
Cut up the pumpkin, bite sized, douse it in oil, put it in the oven, bake bake bake for 30 minutes or until golden and soft, like a good pumpkin should be.
Tear up some basil. Throw everything into that salad bowl so it joins the spinach, mix it all around.

Everyone loves you, it only cost 10 bucks. the end.

pumpkin, eh? are NZ pumpkins different from USA pumpkins? i ask this because you suggested potatoes as an alternate, and USA pumpkins and USA pototoes are crazy different tastes.

They aren't but I don't remember being able to find many to actually cook with (unless from a can) if it wasn't around Thanksgiving or Halloween. The potato idea is kind a boring one, but the closest in texture. Unless maybe you try yams.
