So for Thanksgiving I made this side dish. 

EASY PEASY and tasty!!

I had 4 medium sized acorn squashed. 

-Wash, Cut ends, Cut in half and remove seeds

-Slice in 1/2in or thicker slices

-Set in baking sheet or dish

•oven to 375

Glaze ingredients:

-4tbsp of Salted Butter

-8tbsp Pure Honey

-1/2 tsp of almond extract

Fishing Touches:

-spices of choice (cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cayenne etc. whatever you like)

-Slivered almonds

•Melt, mix, & brush both sides of the squash slices with the glaze ingredients. Sprinkle with your spice of choice (I used pumpkin pie spice. It’s got the perfect mix of spices I wanted).  Bake 15 minutes and brush glaze on again and bake another 15 minutes. 

Let the glaze carmalize on both sides. So watch and flip over to get even coloring and carmalization. 

-Serve in dish and sprinkle slivered almonds (& if you have any extra glaze). 

-I recommend using a pan vs. glass dish as the dish didn’t get that carmelization. 
Enjoy!!!

I love to offer my support to my clientele with group fitness classes I offer in my community and I feel we work as a team all together to HELP each other. I LOVE offering my support via the web too as I REACH other people that I can't physically see. IT IS AMAZINGLY rewarding and I can't imagine NOT having that as part of my life! Im currently on my postpartum journey once again and so GRATEFUL and BLESSED to live this healthy lifestyle, lead by example for my family, and support others on their journey too!
