But, and there is always a but, RUN THE OTHER DIRECTION!
Unless you are a die hard vegetarian or vegan, or you totally dig off the wall meals, RUN!
It is a rarity I make things for dinner that we both don't like...but this was one that will live forever. And 24 hours later we're both still reeling from the effects of this meal.
The concept was really good - and I think a different veggie selection to go along with the butternut squash would have been really good - or even using black beans with it with the squash would have been way better.
But hey - it was a pretty picture huh?
I will post the recipe for those of you die hard veggie eaters that may want to try this or those of you that want to play around with this recipe to improve upon it. I know I'll play around with it more, again removing the more ruffage type veggies.
