  • 2 Acorn Squash (1.25lb or less each, halved and deseeded)
  • 2 large apples (Braeburn)

  • 2.5 TB Olive Oil
  • 1 TB Brown Sugar
  • 1 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • 1 LB Ground Turkey
  • 1 tsp Steak/Meat Rub/Seasoning
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to broil to 525.
  2. Cut Acorn Squash lengthwise and scoop out seeds. Place on rimmed cookie sheet with reusable parchment paper. Drizzle with 1.5 TB olive oil.
  3. Chop apples. Set aside.
  4. Peel beets and chop. Combine apples and beets on cookie sheet. Drizzle with 1 TB Olive Oil. Toss with brown sugar and pumpkin pie spice.
  5. Broil squash and beet and apple combination for 30-35 minutes depending on your preference for squash texture (longer cooking will give squash a smoother texture).
