Steps:
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add ginger, paprika, cinnamon, turmeric, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring well to ensure the spices don't stick and burn, for 2 minutes.
- Add butternut squash, chickpeas, tomatoes, vegetable stock, raisins, and honey. Simmer until squash starts to break down, about 20 minutes.
- While the soup is cooking, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread flaked almonds onto a baking sheet.
- Toast nuts in the preheated oven, shaking the pan frequently, until they start to turn golden brown and become fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Stir spinach and cilantro into the soup; cook until spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes. Ladle into bowls and garnish with toasted almonds.

Steps:
- Heat butter and olive oil in a 3- to 4-quart Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed saucepan with a tight fitting lid over medium heat.

Cook, stirring occasionally, until spices are aromatic and onions are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Add broth, chickpeas, tomatoes and their juices, and saffron, if using. Bring mixture to a boil then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer until squash is fork tender, about 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in preserved lemon and olives. Serve over couscous garnished with cilantro, almonds, and yogurt.

I have not had a chance to try this yet. From Ask Aida's "Light & Healthy" episode. You can substitute veggie stock for the chicken stock to make this recipe vegetarian, and of course you can opt not to use the yogurt to make it vegan as well. :)
