Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Step 2
Trim the top and bottom of the honey nut squash and remove the seeds. Slice each squash into four long wedges, drizzle with olive oil, sea salt, and garlic granules.
Step 3
Chop the sage and then arrange the honey nut squash on a pan and sprinkle the sage on top. Roast for 15 minutes or until tender. Turn off the oven and keep the squash in the oven to stay warm.
Step 4
Meanwhile, drizzle olive oil in a pan and sprinkle 1/4 cup of pine nuts to the pan. Heat over medium and stir slightly occasionally to evenly toast the pine nuts. Remove the nuts and set aside in a small bowl. (The other nuts should already be roasted since they were purchased as such.)
Step 5
Chop the basil and remove the thyme leaves from the twigs. Set herbs aside in a small bowl.
Step 6
In a large pan, sauté the kale until slightly crispy. Set aside in a bowl and cover to keep warm.
Step 7
In the warm large pan, quickly fry eggs and flip them to briefly cook the other side.
Step 8
Plate the kale, squash and eggs. Top with the toasted pine nuts, pepitas, pistachios, goat cheese, thyme and basil.
