Even if some folks are confused about whether they're food or decorations, I can at least offset the homesickness with a month full of squash - themed
meals like this Butternut Squash and Black Bean Chili.
Not exact matches
T his sounds
like my kind of
meal with the coconut AND
butternut squash!
I
like to roast a whole
butternut squash to have on hand, for different
meals throughout the week (
like this
squash soup).
A typical full day of eating for me looks
like: Breakfast: Spinach, Mushroom, Onion and Tomato Frittata... sometimes with bacon or homemade sausage Iced Coffee with coconut milk Lunch (this is usually my largest
meal of the day): 4 - 5 ounces of protein (turkey burger, pulled pork, chicken thighs, ground buffalo), roasted veggies and sometimes a sweet potato or
butternut squash Snack: apple with almond butter or a handful of macadamia nuts Dinner: A large salad with all kinds of raw veggies (cucumber, celery, carrots, cauliflower), avocado or olives, usually a lighter protein
like grilled chicken breast, salmon or shrimp This would represent a full menu... I would say I hit this about 4 - 5 days a week, other days I may omit the snack or keep the snack and omit a
meal, if i do that though I would add a bit of protein with it.
This curry is an easy weeknight
meal and I
like to plan ahead and cut the prep time by cooking the
butternut squash the night before I actually make the curry so it's quicker to assemble.
About an hour later, I will eat another
meal rich in whole proteins and carbohydrates — usually some lean meat and cooked vegetables
like carrots,
butternut squash, and beets, which are carb dense vegetables.
