250g butternut pumpkin, deseeded, peeled, cut into 2cm pieces

1 teaspoon Middle Eastern or Italian spice blend
2 tablespoons tomato paste

Directions
Wash pumpkin and place, with water clinging, on a microwave-safe plate. Cover and microwave for 3 minutes or until almost tender. Drain.

Add tomato paste and tomatoes. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes or until thickened.
Add beans and pumpkin. Cook for a further 10 minutes or until pumpkin is tender. Add baby spinach and stir until wilted. Stir in chicken and basil and season with salt and pepper.
Preheat grill on medium-high heat. Spoon bean mixture into four 2-cup capacity, heatproof bowls (or one large dish). Sprinkle with cheeses. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes or until cheese has melted.
* For a vegetarian version, leave out the chicken breast.
