I woke up this morning wanting something savory and warm. This is what I came up with!
Ingridients:
1 acorn squash
1 granny smith apple
2-3 slices bacon
1/4 C diced sweet onions
coconut oil
cinnamon
nutmeg
optional: maple agave syrup
Cut the squash in half, scoop out the seeds and then coat the squash with some coconut oil. Place in preheated oven at 400 degrees, skin side down. Bake for about 40 minutes, until you can pierce easily with a fork. Dice onion, Cut apple and bacon into small cubes. Sauté onions until soft, then add bacon and apples. Add nutmeg and cinnamon. Sauté on medium high until cooked. When squash is cooked, scoop apple/bacon mixture into the squash. Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes. Serve with a drizzle of maple syrup!
This is something that I would eat for breakfast on cold mornings, but it would also be a great side dish for a salad or soup! Also, I didn’t add salt to mine, but a sprinkle or two could make the flavors pop a bit more!
Namaste
