This easy and filling breakfast just screams fall!
Ingredients
One whole butternut squash
Two eggs
Two slices of baked honey ham
Nonstick cooking spray
optional: Butter, salt and pepper
Step One: poke holes in the butternut squash for ventilation while cooking. Place whole squash in the microwave for 10-20 minutes depending on the squash size (10 small, 20 large)
While the squash is cooking begin your morning routine: jump in the shower, make your bed, do your hair, etc.
Step Two: cut the squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the "guts" (seeds) using a spoon (you will know the squash is done when you can easily cut it in half without any resistance) Scoop 1/4-1/2 of the squash out of its skin onto your plate, add a pad of butter to melt in the middle (if you want).
Save the rest of the squash we will use it in later meals!
Step Three: while the squash is cooling, grease a medium sized skillet with the nonstick cooking spray. Crack two eggs into the skillet and add ham to the side. Cook covered on low-medium heat until the whites of the eggs are completely cooked, about 3-7 minutes.
While the eggs and ham are cooking, continue your morning routine *set a timer so your eggs don't burn*
Step Four: arrange eggs, ham, and butternut squash on a plate, salt and pepper to taste and enjoy with your favorite breakfast beverage (coffee, teat, juice mimosa, we don't judge!)
