Maple Cinnamon Roasted Acorn Squash

Greetings... I hope you are all having a wonderful week!!

Are you staying strong through this tempting time of year?

Confession: I ate too many cookies this week... (It happens.)

Needless to say, I am now feeling the need to greatly increase my veggie intake. :)

So, I got a little creative...

Who says you can't have squash for breakfast? :)

This replaced my usual ezekiel toast with almond butter and jelly today...
