I have had great success recently with this recipe. It's combining a couple schools of thought and adding my own twist, but I assure you the combo is delicious. 2.5# butternut squash roasted until tender about 30-40 minutes @ 375 4 strips of bacon - cook and pour off drippings and keep remainder in pan 1/3 finely chopped large onion 1 clove garlic 2T chopped sage 1/3 cup parm cheese 10 amaretto cookies (crushed) salt/pepper/cinnamon to taste sauté the onion, garlic, and sage in the pan you cooked the bacon in. when the onions are soft and translucent put everything in a food processor and blend until smooth but still chunky enough to see some of the ingredients i.e. medium sized bacon bits. this combination, for me, had a great sweet and savory taste to it. I hope you find the same success that I did.
