Roasted Acorn Squash

The edges of roasted squash meet the heat and caramelize so nicely. Therefore, the smaller you cut the acorn squash the more edges = more contact with the heat. The problem is the acorn is often a tough shell to crack, um I mean cut. So if cutting in half is all you can handle- awesome. If you can cut it again into wedges- even better!

Lightly steam the yellow or green beans then toss them with a mustard sauce made creamy & tangy with yogurt or half & half if you so choose. Toss in fresh herbs & nuts for a complete side dish.

Pecan Tilapia

A nutty crust brings tilapia up to a new level and is especially lovely paired with most any fall side dishes. It is perfect solo or with a tangy sweet sauce. The crusted fish comes together quickly as soon as the pecans are chopped and bakes at a high temperature until golden, rather then pan searing. Make it gluten free with brown-rice flour and gluten free breadcrumbs. Save time by using pecan meal if you can find it, almond or hazelnut meal can work as well.
