Note to self: don't read these food logs when hungry. mmmm butternut

[aldersprig]

The butternut spinach thing is pretty good, too. It's that and goat cheese and a bit of some sort of pig meat.

Hmmmmm! Not a big fan of most goat cheese but I bet one can substitute. (pig meat? like BACON? 8D?!)

You should send me the recipe at some point so I can try it next squash season.

We've used blue cheese, too

Hrrm.

Take 2/3 of a medium butternut squash (Any winter squash), peel and cube, apprx. 1in. cubes, microwave until fork-soft.

Meanwhile cook something pig, ham, bacon, sausage, (we use 2-3 oz people) in a pan, reserve a bit of fat if there is any. Roast an onion, a pepper, or something else.

Shred 3 c spinach.

Toss butternut into the pan, with a bit of butter if using non-fatty pig product. cook until you get a bit of mallard duck... I mean malliard effect, browning, toss in the spinach until wilted.

Add soft cheese (blue, goat, etc.) at table.

T. adds:

we use 2-3 oz per person
vs your canabalist line
yes, tho i tend to use olive oil and it works fine
need to salt, and a green herb
parsley, thyme, etc.
brown sugar on the squash
1t to 1T depending on desired sweetness, some needed
