Here’s a quick light Thanksgiving stuffing I created with few ingredients. I prefer to cook my stuffing on the side instead of stuffing it in the turkey. This can definitely be enjoyed as a side dish with any meal. I really wanted to make a dish that represented the flavours and ingredients of Fall. Hope you enjoy it;)

Ingredients

  • 1 organic butternut squash
  • 2 slices of sourdough bread
  • 1/3 cup currants
  • 1/3 cup unsalted pumpkin seeds
  • 1 organic apple chopped
  • 1/2 small onion chopped
  • 1 tbs organic butter and olive oil (to taste) 1/4 cup of vegetable broth
  • herbs de provence spice/nutmeg/sea salt and pepper

Directions

  1. slice, clean and bake butternut squash face down for 30min. at 400f
  2. in a pan over medium heat melt butter and add onions until caramelized
  3. add chopped apple, pumpkin seeds and currants and bread and sauté until crisp
  4. add all spices (to taste)
  5. once cooked, chop butternut squash in cubes and add to pan
  6. add broth and olive oil (to taste)
  7. (optional) bake all for 15min @400f for a sticker texture
