Maple Acorn Squash with Pecans Recipe (Paleo)

February 18, 2014 by mike Leave a Comment

Last time I went to Bristol Farms (a market by my house), I ended up buying basically every frozen vegetable that they had.  I figured I would eventually get to use them, but they have all been sitting in my freezer, useless.  So, this week I’m planning on using all of the frozen vegetables that I have and cooking them while frozen to prove that they can be convenient enough to keep buying.

The acorn squash that I bought were frozen and cut up into cubes, which is awesome since it saved me from having to do all of the dirty work.  It was only like 2 bucks for the bag, so it was totally worth it.

Mix all of that up!  I need to buy some mixing bowls so I can stop using my pots for this :/

Leave it in the oven until the squash gets nice and soft.

If you mix it up too much, it will turn into a mash.  That’s up to you if you want that.
