Perfect Side Dish for Thanksgiving


By The Enthusiastic Eater (Visit website)



If you're still trying to come up with one more side for your Thanksgiving feast, this is it. The ingredients are seasonally appropriate, the dish is easy to prepare and it can be made ahead and heated up just prior to the big meal.

Ingredients:
1 butternut squash, peeled, seeds removed, chopped
1 T brown sugar (packed)
1 cup fresh cranberries
6 stems of fresh thyme
Olive oil
S&P
2 T walnuts (optional)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Toss squash with sugar, thyme stems, olive oil (enough to coat it lightly) and S&P. Lay it all out in an single layer on a non-stick baking sheet (I always spray mine with Pam).

Bake for 30 minutes and then sprinkle cranberries and walnuts over the top. Bake for another 10-15 minutes or until the cranberries burst.

If you make this ahead, just dump it all back onto a baking sheet and re-warm it in the oven while you're cooking something else. Remove the thyme stems before serving.

I served this tonight with garlic, rosemary pork tenderloin with sauteed apples. It all tasted delicious together - so delicious that I may chop up an apple and and roast it with the squash next time.

And I need to give my hubby props tonight. The wine he opened, a 2005 Artesa Tempranillo, went perfectly with our meal. It's one of my absolute favorites and was an awesome pairing with the squash and the pork.
