Parmesan Pumpkin, Chorizo & Pesto Couscous

with Roast Veggies & Dill-Parsley Mayo

Tonight's golden pumpkin develops a fabulous sweet and nutty flavour when roasted, a lovely contrast against the sharp and salty Parmesan and the bright and herby basil pesto in the couscous. Tie it all together with superstar chorizo. It's the perfect protein to pair with the pumpkin!
