Roasted Butternut Squash with Apple
1 butternut squash
1/2 T olive oil
a dash of salt and pepper
1 T butter
2 small apples cut into thin slices
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 T brown sugar
1/2 walnuts
1/4 apple cider vinegar
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice squash in half, length-wise and scoop out/discard the seeds and pulp. Drizzle the olive oil over the flesh and sprinkle with a dash of salt and pepper. Place the flesh face-down on a baking dish or jelly roll pan and bake for about 20 minutes. Turn the squash flesh face-up and bake for another 15-20 minutes or until flesh is easily pierced with a fork. While squash is baking, add butter to a frying pan and melt. Add onion and saute until it begins to soften. Add apple slices and continue to stir. When apples have softened, add brown sugar and walnuts. Stir 2-3 minutes longer and add in the cider vinegar and stir for another 2-3 minutes. When squash is ready, remove from the oven and top with apple and onion mixture. Enjoy!
