Breakfast Burrito Bowl with Spiced Butternut Squash
Description
The recipe starts by roasting cubed butternut squash coated in olive oil and a blend of garlic powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until tender and caramelized. Concurrently, a pico-style salsa is prepared with chopped tomatoes, onions, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper to add acidity and brightness.
Eggs are cooked to preference with light seasoning, then the bowl is assembled by layering portions of the roasted squash, salsa, cubed avocado, shredded cheddar cheese, and eggs. This creates a balanced dish with warm roasted elements, creamy avocado, fresh zest from the salsa, and melted cheese that ties the components together.
