Fall is here and it will be gone before we know it. Since we’re here, why don’t we just try to make this sweet and spicy butternut squash!

When preparing the sweet and spicy butternut squash, eat it within 4 days. I recommend enjoying with some turkey, chicken, or my favorite 3 Herb Pulled Pork!

Here it is for you, the recipe for the Sweet and Spicy Butternut Squash!

Sweet and Spicy Butternut Squash (Paleo, Keto) Ingredients 2 butternut squashes (about 5 pounds total)

2-4 tsp of cinnamon

2 tsp of ground coriander (optional)

1-4 tsp of cayenne pepper

1-2 tbsp of coconut sugar

1-2 tbsp of melted coconut oil or other oil of preference

Salt and pepper to taste Directions Set oven to bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Grab squashes and cut off the tops.

Then peel off the skin and cut the squash in half.

Also, remove the seeds.

Now, cut the squash into cubes and place in a deep baking tray.

Add spices, oil, and coconut sugar.

Shuffle around and make sure the squashes are all covered.

Place in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes.

A good way to tell is by sticking and fork and if it slides off the fork it is done!

Cook one side at a time, each side should take about 15 minutes.

Once done enjoy with your choice of protein!

Sweet and Spicy Butternut Squash is what it is. It is a combination of the proper spices that deliver a unique flavor that resembles fall. Kinda like pumpkin spice, but a lot better. Don’t fear, if you like this recipe you don’t have to limit it only to eating it during the fall.

Butternut squash is a vegetable family of the pumpkin. It normally grows in colder months and it is somewhat shaped like a pear. Rich in minerals such as potassium, magnesium, and manganese. Antioxidants found in the vegetable have been shown to help reduce free radicals.

The sweet and spicy butternut squash came about when a close friend of mine decided to give me a couple butternut squash from his garden. Garden vegetables can’t be beaten! They are way better than buying organic at Whole Foods. When eating from a garden it has a better color and taste.

As Always, Stay Real!
