Sweet yams n squash (vegan)

6 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 Squash
4 Sweet potatoes
¼ cup Orange juice
1 Dollop of maple syrup
1 Dollop of honey or molasses
x Sweet spices to taste-
Cinnamon, ginger, cardamom,
Etc

Directions

Heat oven to 350F. Lightly spray a big-enough Pyrex pan with Pam.

Trim ends of squash, cut in half lengthwise, clean out seeds, and lay flat sides down in pan. Peel sweet potatoes (hey, it's up to you!) and lay in pan. Bake in oven until both are done. (Check after 30 minutes, then keep checking at reasonable intervals.) "Done" = as soft as you like them.

Remove the cooked veggies from the oven, cut them into bite-sized slices and chunks, and arrange them in a serving dish.

Separately, combine the liquids and sweet spices. Pour over the warm veggies. (There could be lots of variations on the liquids and spices to achieve different kinds of flavors. This was the combo that I used.)

Either serve immediately, or refrigerate (covered). Can be reheated in a regular or microwave oven. This yielded one medium-sized casserole full. Probably "serves 6" as part of a normal meal rather than a big office lunch.
