PAN SAUTEED BUTTERNUT SQUASH, PEARS AND SAGE

Steps:

• One pan -- In a large skillet, add the oil and saute the onions and garlic first. Medium heat so they do not burn. Cook 2-3 minutes and then add in the squash and a little of the apple cider and cook another 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
• Fruit -- Then add the pears, the rest of the apple cider and maybe a little stock to give the squash and pears moisture. Cook until the pears begin to soften. About 4-5 minutes. Add the sage, allspice, parsley, salt and pepper to taste and any additional stock if needed. You don't want the dish to burn. Cook until soft but not MUSH.
• NOTE: I just keep enough stock in the bottom to avoid burning but don't over do it. It varies as to how much stock I use. I just have my handy box in the fridge so I can always add a little if needed.
• Garnish -- one friend adds crumbled gorgonzola, another pecans. I have done either one and even both. They are very good with the dish, but the dish is also good on it's own.
• It is simple, tasty, healthy and just plain good.
