Baked Acorn Squash



With SCD, you have to get creative with fibre and carbs- and one of the best ways is squash!

This is a recipe I've revised from Eat Well Feel Well by Kendall Conrad. This is an essential book for recipes for SCD diets- definitely check it out!

Roasted Acorn Squash

acorn squash (cut into 1/2s)
olive oil
2 cubes butter
dash nutmeg
dash cinnamon
honey to taste
dash basil
Parmesan cheese*
orange zest

1. Preheat oven to 350f.
2. Cut squash in 1/2. Place on baking tray.
3. rub flesh with olive oil. Place one cube of butter in each 1/2. Sprinkle spices, orange zest and cheese on top. Drizzle with honey.
4. Place in oven for 40-45 minutes until tender.

*NOTE: Use Parmesan cheese at your discretion. Only you know your body and what triggers your symptoms. Please refer to the legal/illegal list of foods on this diet.

  1. Low oxilate too, have a child with vaccine injuries/autism. We would have to omit the cinnamon, oil and nutmeg....ugh! Oh well, I'll just add some golden delicious apple to sweeten it up!
