Try these roasted butternut squash and goat cheese tartines for a wonderfully delicious and healthy lunch this Fall.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb butternut squash (or any kind of hard squash) peeled and cubed
  • Slices of good French or Italian country bread
  • Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 4 ounces goat cheese
  • Cilantro
  • Honey
  • Salt
  • Black pepper

Instructions

  1. Butter the bread slices and toast them (i like the outside of the bread to be crispy)
  2. Add a large spoonful of the squash mixture to each slice of bread (enough to cover the entire slice)
  3. Smash the squash with a fork to cover all the bread surface
  4. Cut thin circles of goat and place on top of the squash
  5. Place the bread (with squash and goat cheese on top) under the broiler for a few minutes until the goat cheese is light brown on top
  6. Remove from the broiler
  7. Drizzle with honey on top
  8. Top with cilantro and serve immediately

Notes

I like to caramelize the squash for an extra depth of flavor. So let the squash go a little bit longer until the bottoms of each cube get crusty brown and the bits of squash on the baking sheet are also browned.
