Butternut Squash with poached eggs


 New discovery. The little well that forms inside these butternut squash are the perfect size for an egg. This made it a meal. And the combination of salty and sweet was delicious.

*Cut squash in half, lengthwise
*Remove seeds
*Bake face down in1/2 inch of water for 20 minutes
*Take out of oven and carefully flip over. Will be very hot at this point
*Crack fresh egg in each well
*Salt and pepper to taste
*Bake an additional 20 to 25 minutes util egg is firm
*Serve with 100 percent pure maple syrup


I only use pure maple syrup. The commercial brands use mostly corn syrup. And corn causes my Crohn's to flare.
