what to do with butternut squash, gorgonzola, and pine nuts?


make pizza!
i just had a friend request this, so i thought i'd post it here. you know the drill, make some pizza dough (i use the alice waters recipe), make some caramelized onions (easy peasy- chop them into rounds, then saute the crap out of them in olive oil and butter with some salt till they're slimy and brown), chop up and lightly steam some butternut squash, crumble some gorgonzola, toast some pine nuts, and break up some fresh or dry rosemary. roll the dough thin, place it on your already heated pizza stone (with some cracked cornmeal to prevent sticking), then top with onion layer, cheese and the rest and pop it in the oven.
another great option with these ingredients is to just roast the squash cut in half with the hole filled with gorgonzola and some chopped pecans. money. in. the. bank. no joke.

  2. The other pizza I made with the pine nuts and gorgonzola was really good.
