Butternut Lovin’

What a week it’s been….it’s definitely starting to feel like the holidays now. Foggy mornings, chilly evenings…and that great smell of a fireplace burning somewhere.

I love baking sweet and/or savory things on evenings like this….where the aroma of whatever baking fills the house and makes it feel like home. It just warms my heart so. So last night, we had Baked Butternut Squash. It’s such a great “fall/winter vegetable. I love the touch of sweetness it can add to dishes.

This bake is both quick and easy, and tastes great as a side to risotto, tossed in a bowl of spiced up quinoa or as an addition to a holiday feast–it’s a pretty versatile dish.
