Working on your taxes and doing laundry can really bring a person down so I decided to throw something in the oven for lunch.  I took a pack of butternut squash, ½ a sweet onion, 3 slices of organic bacon and one red chile pepper (hot but of course you could use a bell pepper).

Sprinkled a bit of olive oil on a pan, spread it out, salt and peppered it and cooked it at 400° for 40 minutes or until the bacon is crispy, stirring it a few times.  

I served half of it over 1/3 cup of barley that I had left over from making granola bars but you could eat it over fresh spinach, which the heat would melt deliciously. That actually sounds better than what I did!  Either way, it took me 5 minutes to cut up the onion and pepper and put it on the tray.  I have another half a serving for tomorrow or to throw into a soup I am thinking about making later… Yum!
