Apples and Butternut Squash

Crock Pots are wonderful for easy, everything-in-one-pot meals. I love recipes that combine fruits and vegetables. 

Recipe

This recipe makes a lovely side dish to curries, grilled chicken or fish.

  • 1 Tbs. organic grass-fed, Ghee

  • 1/2 ts ground Ceylon Cinnamon

  • 1/4 tsp ground Nutmeg

  • 1 lb organic Butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cut into 1/2-inch cubes (about 5 cups)

  • 2 large tart organic Apples, cored, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (4 cups)

  • 1/2 organic White Onions, chopped

  • 2 Tbs. pure Maple syrup

  • 1 Tbs. Balsamic vinegar

Combine spices in a small bowl, and set aside.

Put squash in Crock-pot. Add apples and onion. Sprinkle with spices and add maple syrup.  Stir to combine well.

Cover and cook on LOW for 6 - 7 hours, or until vegetables are tender.  Stir in butter and adjust seasoning just before serving.
