Whats This?

This recipe blog is an extension of my original blog Motivation... Determination... Drive. Having been asked numerous times what is involved in paleo eating and the simple question "so... what can you eat?" I have decided to put this collection together. Some of the recipes will be original, and some will be modifications (or replicas) of recipes I have found in cookbooks books or on line. Every recipe listed will be something I have tried, nothing that I think just looks good and want to attempt. As a disclaimer, I will not take credit for those found at other sources, if you are to use one listed with a link attached please give credit to the original site. Thank You and happy eating!!

Rosemary Balsamic Butternut Squash

The other night I was suppose to come home and get the spaghetti squash started for dinner. Well, to my surprise the squash had gone bad, this doesnt usually happen as they typically last 3 weeks. What was I going to do? Well, fortunately I had just purchased "The Paleo Recipe Book" by Sebastien Noel.  I was pretty excited that I happened to have half of a butternut squash leftover from the roast so I was able to try this recipe!

What you need:
- 1 Medium Butternut Squash (I used half of one for this but kept the quantities of everything else the same)
- 2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 Clove Garlic
- 1 Tbsp and 1 Tsp Balsamic Vinegar
- 1 Tsp Rosemary (Chopped)
- Sea Salt and Black Pepper


What you do:
- Preheat Oven to 400 deg
- Peel and Cube Butternut Squash
- Combine all ingredients (except for tsp of balsamic) and toss with cubed squash
- Put in baking dish and bake for 40 minutes, squash should be soft
- Toss with remaining tsp of balsamic
- Serve

We had it with Almond Flour Breaded Chicken it was delish!!
