Maple Bacon Roasted Butternut Squash

This would be a great dish to bring to Thanksgiving, or another get together - or just a day at home! Note that this would not be compliant during a challenge due to the Maple syrup. It may not be easy to break this into template servings, but it would be considered a preferable option to some other dishes.

Pesto Spaghetti Squash with Tomatoes

This is a great side dish to satisfy the “pasta” craving. You can get super creative with this dish. If you want more veggies you can add in some mushrooms and onions. I typically will add in some grilled chicken breast, ground beef, or sausage to add a little protein to this dish. It’s yummy mixed in the dish or served on the side.

Pomegranate Mixed Greens Salad

December tends to be a month where there are lots of get togethers which tend to have a lot of food. These recipes are some options for tasty dishes you could bring to an event to help keep you on your nutrition plan! There may be items in this recipe which you won’t find on your template food chart - that’s ok. It doesn’t mean we encourage regular consumption of off-template items. We are just realistic in that sometimes you want a healthier option but still some sweetness. And on occasion, that is definitely ok :)
