Another Monday. Or in 2020 speak, just day. Today was a tough one for me. Like crying at non-emotional scenes of reality television kind of rough. Not that I’m regularly watching reality television in the middle of the day…. DON’T LOOK AT ME, LEAVE ME ALONE, LET ME LIVE. Anyways, so I’m not able to expend much in the cognitive resources department for dinner. Hence this super simple butternut squash. AND I took the guesswork out of figuring out what to eat this week. A new meal plan + grocery guide using mostly pantry staples below too!

And I’ve got you covered for the butternut squash recipe, too!
Grab it:

- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- avocado oil
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 1 tsp dried thyme

Do it up:
Preheat oven to 400F. Peel butternut squash and slice. Coat with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper and roast for 45-50 minutes. While roasting, saute onions and garlic on stove top until fragrant and translucent. When both are complete, add all ingredietns to blender and blend until smooth.
