Before you jump to Thanksgiving Leftover Baked Acorn Squash recipe, you may want to read this short interesting healthy tips about Finding Nutritious Fast Food.
Just about every article you read about restoring your health or slimming down is going to tell you to ignore the drive through and cook all of your meals instead. This is actually very true. But occasionally the last thing you would like to do is make a whole supper for yourself and your family. Sometimes you just want to reach the drive through en route to your home and call it a day. There isn’t any reason that you shouldn’t be permitted to do this and not be plagued by guilt about slipping on your diet. This is because a lot of the popular fast food restaurants out there are trying to “healthy up” their selections. Here’s how you’ll be able to eat healthfully when you’re at a fast food spot.
Choose a drive through based on if it has healthier options available. For instance, Arby’s won’t offer hamburgers. Instead, a person’s options include things like roast beef and chicken sandwiches, wraps and big salads. While Wendy’s has served hamburgers for decades, additionally they have a lot of other healthy options like salads, baked potatoes and chili. Not every little thing is McDonalds using its deep fried chicken parts as well as other terribly unfit items.
Fundamental sense states that the proper way to lose weight and get healthy is to ban fast food from your diet completely. While this is usually a good suggestion all you need to do is make a number of good selections and traveling to the drive through isn’t anything to worry about–when you do it in moderation. Sometimes the thing you need most is just to have somebody else do the cooking. When you want healthful menu items, you do not have to feel bad about visiting the drive through.

Add a pinch of leftover herbs from making your Thanksgiving Turkey, I had some thyme leftover, but use what you have and/or prefer. *(If you already have leftover cooked acorn squash halves then skip this step and cut the time in half!)
- Next, place 1/2 cup brown sugar into each squash half on top of the butter and herbs. Drizzle honey across each squash along the edges and inside middles. Place in the oven for 30-35 to soften up while you prepare the filling. *(If you already have leftover cooked acorn squash halves then skip this step!)
- Slice yellow and orange peppers and sweet onion. Saute veggies in oil, then make the rice and/or quinoa according to instructions. *(We didnt have rice or quinoa leftover from our feast so I used a one skillet meal starter with quinoa and brown rice. If you have leftover rice or quinoa to use then skip this step!)
- When skillet mix is finished, add leftover turkey (shredded or diced) to the mix. Add leftover corn also and mix well. Cover and set aside.
- Remove acorn squash from heat and allow to cool slightly, while you make the baked seeds.
- Leave oven at 375°. Remove all seeds from squash insides and place into a bowl. Wash and rinse well. Spray baking sheet with cooking spray and lay seeds out into a flat layer. Spray a layer of cooking spray across the tops of seeds. Immediately after spraying, dust tops with cinnamon and sugar. Bake for 15-20 mins until toasty. Then remove and let cool. *(If you already have some baked seeds use what you have and skip this step!)
- Now, using a spoon place leftover stuffing and quinoa/rice mix with leftover turkey and corn into the baked acorn squash halves.
- Finally, Preheat the oven to 400°. Place a scoop of leftover cranberry sauce onto each mixture filled acorn squash half. Top with leftover marshmallows (if you use these from your sweet potato recipes) and drizzle honey across tops. Place into Oven.
