Here’s a great recipe to start the day off or make for brunch in the Fall.
Sometimes poached eggs don’t always turn out as planned, but when you put them in a butternut squash there’s no worries that it will be perfect. And the baby squashes are too cute for words. Each half is one serving and they make they’re own bowls.
It’s a good combo of creamy butternut squash and the lushness of the egg yolk coming together. so simple dressed with flaked salt and pepper, sorrel greens, and roasted sweet baby peppers.
Everything happens on a sheet pan for minimal mess in the kitchen.
