ROASTED SWEET POTATOES AND SQUASH WITH BROWN SUGAR AND SPICES
When holiday season hits and everyone is in search of a potato recipe, try this dish: roasted sweet potatoes and squash with brown sugar and spices. It might sound redundant to add sugar to sweet potatoes, but don't worry: This recipe is layered with flavor. The addition of squash, cinnamon, and nutmeg balances out the sweetness delightfully. It takes 15 minutes to prepare this side dish for 6, so double the recipe if you have to and throw 'em in the oven. These veggies aren't reserved for the holidays, though: Make them at the beginning of the week when you meal-prep and enjoy for the next few days. It's as simple as that!

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH & SWEET POTATO SOUP
Squash was something my parents cooked when I was a kid, not often--but often enough. And they usually did the butter/brown sugar thing. I thought these people were crazy! Veggie massacre! I stayed far away and happily ate my "safe and sound" corn and carrots and beans. This past winter, there was squash of all kinds on sale...
