The B'S Knees (Bacon, Butternut Squash And Brussel Sprouts)

• 1 acorn or butternut squash
• 1 small yellow onion
• 6-8 brussel sprouts
• 3 slices bacon
• 1/4 cup walnuts (whole or pieces)
• 1.5 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
• salt and pepper (to taste)

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
2. Peel and chop squash into cubes. Cut brussel sprouts in half. Put both in a bowl with olive oil, salt and pepper. Toss to coat and place on baking sheet and in the oven for 25-30 minutes
3. While squash and sprouts are roasting, cook bacon in frying pan until crisp. Chop onion into small dice and add to cooking bacon. When both are cooked, set aside absorbing the extra grease.
4. With about 10 minutes left on the roasting time, place the walnuts on a baking sheet and place in oven.
5. Once vegetables and nuts are ready (give nuts a rough chop if used large or whole pieces), place in large bowl along with bacon, onion mix. Add the cinnamon, nutmeg and maple syrup and toss to coat.
6. Serve on your choice of greens or grains or on its own with a beautiful chunk of fresh bread.
