Butternut Squash Panini

👀 Check out my fancy schmancy sandwich! 👀

When this recipe popped on my IG feed by Food Babe, I was drooling & couldn't WAIT to make it! What a creative combo of flavors! I never thought to spotlight butternut squash in a sandwich...ummm YUM.

Pairing it with creamy goat cheese highlighted with mint & parsley, caramelized onions & spicy arugula? I mean, COME ON. Makes all my senses tingle just thinking about it!

And it all came together perfectly sandwiched in Great Harvest Bread Co's Alaskan sourdough bread!

Half a sandwich was perfect for me paired with a delicious salad. I topped fresh spinach & arugula leaves with crisp apples, freshly ground pepper, toasted pecans & dressed it with EVOO & apple cider vinegar. 😋 Mmmmm.

So let's talk nutrition for a sec because butternut is impressive:

✅ High in fiber

✅ Packed with vitamins & minerals

✅ Antioxidant rich

✅ Loaded with carotenoids (which give it that beautiful orange hue 😍)

In short, it's a powerhouse for your body - especially your gut, cardiovascular & immune system. 💪🏽

Give it a go! The only mod I made was skipping the maple/honey as I prefer savory over sweet!

Enjoy! 😋
