For a vegan option, substitute the Parmesan cheese with nutritional yeast or a vegan Parmesan alternative. If you don't have a spiralizer, you can use a vegetable peeler to create wide ribbons or julienne the butternut squash. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to control the level of spiciness. A pinch of cayenne pepper can also be used. To enhance the flavor, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a drizzle of balsamic glaze after roasting.
