Yep, it’s another Friday so it’s time for another Super Food. This recipe is for a side dish, so I figured it was okay to only incorporate one super food in this one. Pumpkin. I love the pumpkin. I made this, however, with an acorn squash. Either will work and either are good for you.

This turned out very well and looked beautiful on the plate. It’d make a great side for almost anything — we had it with some rosemary pork tenderloin. Recipe is based on one from Mario Batali, aka: Comic Book Guy.
