I have been playing around with butternut squash lately. Scouring Pinterest and experimenting and finally, I’ve come up with something that I think is pretty darn delicious!! It’s super simple (my favorite kind of delicious dish) and healthy to boot. It’s perfect for the fall weather and I’m actually taking it to my family Thanksgiving tomorrow. We shall see what the verdict is there, but I taste tested and thought it was amazing. I hope you enjoy!
